Due to these financial constraints, the La Liga champions had to concentrate on acquiring free agents and loan deals during the summer transfer window. They also made a cost-effective signing in Oriol Romeu. Despite giving opportunities to several academy graduates since the start of the season, Xavi's team remains undefeated in Spain's top flight after 10 matches.
However, Barcelona's management is fully aware that more financial belt-tightening is in order, especially with La Liga already announcing a reduced salary cap for the 2024-25 season. While they may try to manage this through contract renegotiations, there will come a point when they'll need to make a high-profile sale.
Emphasizing free agents and players with soon-to-expire contracts is a logical approach, one they are likely to continue in the next two transfer windows, particularly in the upcoming summer.
As per reports from Fichajes, Barcelona is interested in negotiating the addition of Kimpembe for the start of the following season. Kimpembe has spent his entire professional career at Parc des Princes, amassing 236 appearances in all competitions. However, the 28-year-old hasn't been able to add to that tally this season due to an Achilles injury he suffered in February.
While Kimpembe is still an integral part of PSG, the prospect of not featuring under Luis Enrique at Barcelona might prompt him to consider a new challenge. Kimpembe's contract is set to expire in June, and Barcelona seems to be considering the opportunity to negotiate a pre-contract agreement early next year.
In addition to Barcelona, Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Juventus are also reportedly interested in Kimpembe. It's also possible that Premier League teams may enter the race for his signature if he doesn't agree to new terms in the next 10 weeks.
