Barcelona legend Xavi Hernandez is overseeing a big rebuilding job at the club and it is said to continue into the summer’s transfer window. The Catalan giants have been linked with several talents across European football. Some of the biggest names in Europe have been linked with a move to Barcelona including Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski. The Polish international skipper has one year left on his current deal at German champions Bayern Munich and it has been reported that he could leave the Allianz Arena for Spain later this year.

Apart from Lewandowski, Borussia Dortmund hitman ErlingHaaland, Chelsea skipper Cesar Azpilicueta and Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford have all been linked with a transfer to Barcelona in recent weeks. The Catalan giants are keen to build on a successful transfer in the January transfer window. They signed the likes of Spanish international AdamaTraore, Pierre-EmerickAubameyang, Brazilian star Dani Alves and Spanish forward Ferran Torres in and around the winter transfer window. All the four signings have been instrumental in the resurgence of Barcelona this season though results have been poor in the last two weeks with three defeats in four games in all competitions on the back of a run of 15 games without defeat in all competitions.

On Olmo, he’s a product of the La Masia Academy in Barcelona. The attacking midfielder is unhappy with his role at RB Leipzig and he could leave this summer. He has two years left to run on his current deal at the German club.
