Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez could be in for a busy summer ahead as he tries to strengthen his squad ahead of the 2022/23 season.
The Catalan giants have had a mixed campaign and currently sit second in La Liga, 15 points behind already-crowned champions Real Madrid with four games to go.
After a disastrous start to the season, it was looking unlikely Barca would even qualify for the Champions League, but Xavi's arrival in November has helped to steady the ship. He has won 19 of his 34 matches in charge.
Xavi had to bolster his ranks in January, though, with the signings of Ferran Torres and Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang. The pair have helped Barca climb up the La Liga table, leaving them in a good position to finish in the top-four.
However, Barcelona are set to add to their squad in order to be more competitive next season. With the club still under some financial restrictions, they may have to try and bring in some bargain players instead.
Someone who has been linked with a move to the Nou Camp is Brentford midfielder Sergi Canos. The 25-year-old has been impressive for the Bees during their first-ever season in the Premier League.
Should Sergi Canos move to Barcelona? Let us know in the comments below!
He has scored twice and grabbed two assists in 30 league appearances this term, after previously playing almost 200 games in the Championship. Canos was at Barcelona until he was 16, before switching to Liverpool in 2013.
However, the Spaniard decided to move to Brentford in 2015 in search of first-team football. He cemented himself in the side from the get-go and has become a vital player for the Bees.
Last season, Canos directly contributed to 19 goals in 55 games as Brentford won promotion to the top-flight. He has continued his excellent form into this season and has been part of a Bees side who have caught the eye of many.
Now SPORT have claimed Barcelona are interested in signing Canos this summer. It is understood it could cost around £8.5million to prize him away from the west London club.
Canos' contract runs out in 2023 but Brentford do supposedly have an option to extend his deal for a further year. The source added that his salary wouldn't be a problem despite Barca's restrictions.
