Mundo Deportivo: Barcelona starts looking for right back, candidates include Mingesa and Kimmich

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona has begun looking for a right back, with Mingesa and Kimmich as candidates.

It is reported that Kounde has gradually adapted to the position of right back and even played this role in the French team. Despite this, Barcelona's sports management has set the goal of introducing a right back and has begun looking for the right candidate in the transfer market.

Kounde will be Barcelona's main right back this season, and Hector Ford will be his substitute. Barcelona plans to introduce a right back in the short or medium term.

There are currently two candidates, one of which is Mingesa, whose contract with Celta will expire in 2026. During his contract with Celta, Barcelona has the option to buy him back for 9 million euros. The club has been keeping a close eye on him, but has not taken any action yet.

Another candidate is Kimmich, who Barcelona has listed as a target. Flick has coached Kimmich in Bayern Munich and the German national team, and has great trust in him, and has arranged him in the right back and defensive midfielder position many times.
