The club could try to get the middle-aged player while they wait for a big sale.

Barcelona is getting ready for the busy last 10 days of the summer transfer window. While the main team is finishing up the waiting lists and completing a deal for Manchester City’s João Cancelo, they are still considering another name: Giovan Lo Celso.

The Tottenham midfielder is one of Xav Hernández’s top targets because the coach sees the Arsenal international as a good way to add depth to the team and a great fit for his four-midfielder system. Now that Bernardo Silva isn’t an option, Lo Celso is the main target for the Blaugrana.

Gerard Romero says that the club has been in touch with Lo Celso’s camp in the last few days to show their interest and let them know that they will make a move for the 27-year-old if they can make a big sale next week.

The Catalans want to sell one of their forwards to make room in their salary cap for a middle-aged player. Ansu Fat, Ferran Torres, and Ez Abde are all available at the right price. As things stand, none of the three players want to leave. But if things change, they could be sold before the end of the window. Barcelona will try to take one more shot, and Lo Celso has been picked.
