Secure Jules Kunde, Barcelona Aim for Two More Defensive Players

Barcelona paid 50 million euros to Sevilla for Kunde.

JAKARTA - Spanish League giants Barcelona managed to secure defender Jules Kunde from Sevilla in the transfer market this summer. However, the Blaugrana management is reportedly still targeting two more defenders.


Barcelona have agreed to sign Konde from Sevilla for a reported transfer fee of 50 million euros. However, Barcelona said the deal was conditional on the 23-year-old's medical examination.


Kounde, who has won 11 France caps since his debut in 2021. He was recently linked with a move to Chelsea. The midfielder has made 133 appearances for Sevilla, and won the Europa League in his first season there after joining from Bordeaux in 2019.

Quoted from Football Espana, Friday (29/7/2022), Barcelona has not stopped attracting defenders. The two defenders currently being targeted by Barcelona are defenders Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso from Chelsea. Barcelona are eager to land the two Spaniards, especially Azpilicueta and Alonso have reached a personal agreement with the Blaugrana.

Even so, Barcelona's move to get the two players will not be easy because Chelsea will try to fence off Azpilicueta and Alonso. Moreover, coach Thomas Tuchel still wants their presence this season.

In addition, Barcelona also cornered Chelsea in the hunt for Raphinha and Jules Kunde, so the Blues are believed to be trying to avoid business with the Blaugrana.

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez wants Azpilicueta to come to Camp Nou because of the flexibility of the 32-year-old's positioning. He can play in various formations.

The same thing was also offered by Alonso. The arrival of the 31-year-old player is considered by Xavi to provide competition to Jordi Alba, who in recent years has been in the main position at left-back.

Barcelona are estimated to be ready to pay between 10 million and 15 million euros or around Rp 151 billion-Rp 226 billion for the two players who are currently entering the final year of their contracts at Stamford Bridge.
