During the final stages of the summer transfer window, Barcelona made efforts to sign a new right back. Marc Pubill d'Almeria was one of those targeted, although in the end, the club's crippling financial situation made it impossible for anyone to be brought.
However, efforts will be renewed in 2025, as reported by Sport. Hansi Flick wants his right-back options to be strengthened, despite already having Jules Kounde and Hector Fort at his disposal.
According to the report, Tiago Santos is one of the players being followed by Barcelona – he is the second Lille player in this situation, with Jonathan David also being considered for a move in 2025, when he would be a free agent.

Santos is a keen option at Can Barca, although it will depend on the club's financial situation as to whether a move can be made. Chances are that Lille will demand a significant amount for the 22-year-old's services, so it won't be easy at all. Barcelona to take him.
