The brass at La Liga giants Barcelona are growing increasingly less interested in the signing of a pair of defenders long tipped for a Camp Nou switch.
The pair in question? Marc Guéhi and Ibrahima Konaté.
The widespread expectation is of course that at least one new central defender will make their way to Barca with a view to next season.
As much comes with the contract of Andreas Christensen due to expire, and uncertainty continuing to swirl around the situation of Ronald Araújo.
A whole host of options from across the continent, in turn, have been tipped as potential arrivals in Catalunya’s capital.
With Barcelona’s financial woes common knowledge, front and centre amongst those linked have been Premier League pair Marc Guéhi and Ibrahima Konaté.
The contracts of both players are currently due to come to an end at the end of the season.
As alluded to above, though, if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, then Deco and co. appear to have their attentions focused elsewhere.
As per a report from Mundo Deportivo:
‘The club has information on players whose contracts are expiring, such as Guéhi (Crystal Palace) and Konaté (Liverpool), but they aren’t considered an improvement on Eric García.’
