Barcelona Keen on Signing Piero Hincapie

Barcelona have made contact over the Ecuadorian defender as Deco looks to add depth and flexibility to Hansi Flick’s back line.

  • FC Twente technical director Erik ten Hag confirmed recently that several prominent clubs have approached the Dutch outfit about 18-year-old defender Ruud Nijstad, regarded as a promising prospect attracting Europe's biggest clubs.
  • Manchester United and Barcelona are monitoring the defender as the race for his signature intensifies ahead of the upcoming transfer windows, with Barcelona's interest complicating United's pursuit.
  • Barcelona may consider an offer worth around £25 million after an earlier £8 million bid was rejected, though Twente believes his eventual transfer value could reach £40 million if development continues.
  • Sporting director Deco is exploring bringing Arsenal defender Piero Hincapie, 24-year-old, to Barcelona as an alternative target, with the player struggling to establish himself as a regular starter this season.
  • Twente prepares an improved contract to reward Nijstad's decision to stay, while Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta remains "very reluctant" to weaken his squad during the winter window.
