Barcelona Eye Manchester City’s Jeremy Doku in Race for Left-Wing Reinforcements

SPORT reports that Barcelona are tracking Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku while they bid to acquire stronger left-wing options this current transfer window.

Recent weeks brought significant uncertainty to Jeremy Doku’s status at Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola selects Savinho for important matches which keeps Doku on the bench. The acquisition of Omar Marmoush at Manchester City introduced added competition to their front line, which created doubts about Doku’s future starting position.

Jeremy Doku Has Been On Bench Lately

According to sources, Doku currently shows a willingness to explore moving to other clubs because of his reduced game appearances.

His representatives are taking concrete steps to investigate European transfer possibilities and Barcelona appears high on their evaluation list.

La Liga giants Barcelona continue to assess an offer to take the 21-year-old player on a season-long loan basis. Usually, Barcelona faces serious hurdles in obtaining new players because of their ongoing financial challenges.

Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford appeared to be Barcelona’s first choice for their left-wing position but Doku now stands as a serious alternative player for that role.

Barcelona’s budget constraints threaten to prevent the impending transfer from going through. The club needs to create room on their salary spending to be ready for new acquisitions.

Barcelona has found it difficult to make any deals so far to move their players elsewhere. Barcelona defender Araújo remains with the team while García keeps his spot in the starting lineup, and Fati refuses to leave following reports.

Barcelona continues to pursue Doku to strengthen their offensive game but the deal shows no clear path forward. Barcelona requires the resolution of their monetary problems to buy Manchester City’s winger during the current transfer period.
