Spanish media revealed that Barcelona have signed Christensen and Casey for free, and this is only part of Barca's summer window signing plan. The Mirror revealed that Barca may sign 7 free agents in the summer window, and the lineup next season will also be exposed.
In the winter window, Barca signed four players in one go, including Alves, Ferran Torres, Traore and Aubameyang. Due to Barca's poor financial situation, signing free agents has become the main way for Barca to recruit reinforcements, and within a year have signed players such as Aguero, Eric Garcia, Depay, Alves, Aubameyang and so on.
Entering 2022, Barca continue this reinforcement strategy, and have signed two free agents, Christensen and Casey. In the summer window, Barca are aiming to sign Rudiger and Azpilicueta, whose contracts with Chelsea have expired.
In addition, Ajax goalkeeper Onana is expected to return to Barca as a free agent, while his teammate Mazlawi is also likely to come to Camp Nou on free. The Mirror revealed that Barca are still eyeing Ghanuzari and that his contract with Real Sociedad expires in June.
This means that Barca have the potential to sign seven players in the summer window without spending a penny on transfer fees. These seven players, together with Pedri, Garvey, Fati and Ferrantores or Aubameyang, are enough to form a strong squad.
The Mirror predicts Barca's 2022-23 squad:
Onana, Mazlawi, Rudiger, Christensen, Azpilicueta; Pedri, Casey, Garvey; Januzzai, Ferran-Torres, Fati
