Barcelona are reportedly considering a swap deal involving Dutch midfielder Frenkie de Jong to sign Bayern Munich's Joshua Kimmich in the winter transfer window. The German star's current contract with the Bavarians runs out in June 2025.
Barcelona have been looking to sign a world-class defensive midfielder since the departure of Sergio Busquets in 2023. According to Spanish newspaper El Nacional, Barcelona are keen on signing Joshua Kimmich in the January transfer window in a swap deal involving Frenkie de Jong.
The Catalan side have been linked with Kimmich for a while now but so far, a deal hasn't materialized. Signing a pivot seems essential for La Blaugrana at this stage, with only La Masia youngster Marc Casado covering the position this season.
