Barcelona are working on their squad with an aim to add quality this summer. Hansi Flick’s men won LaLiga, the Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa de España in the 2024-25 season.
Meanwhile, the Catalans have reached an agreement to take Joan Garcia to Camp Nou. Elsewhere, the LaLiga champions have received a boost in their pursuit of Luis Diaz.
On that note, let’s look at the major Barcelona transfer stories from June 11, 2025.
Barcelona have secured the services of Joan Garcia, according to acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano (via Barca Universal). The Catalans have been hot on the Spaniard’s heels in recent weeks and have now managed to get their man.
The LaLiga champions are laying down succession plans for Marc-Andre ter Stegen, whose future remains up in the air after an injury-ravaged season. Meanwhile, Garcia is one of the brightest young goalkeepers in Europe and already has admirers across the continent.
The 24-year-old enjoyed another impressive campaign with Espanyol, registering eight clean sheets from 38 games across competitions. The player has now agreed a five-year deal with Barcelona and will ply his trade at Camp Nou next season.
The Catalans will trigger the Spaniard’s €25m release clause in the coming days. However, they will also have to address Ter Stegen’s future soon.
Barcelona could sign Luis Diaz for less than his €80m asking price, according to SPORT (via Barca Universal). Hansi Flick wants a new left-forward this summer, and multiple candidates have been mentioned as possible targets.
While the list includes Marcus Rashford and Rafael Leao, the Camp Nou hierarchy apparently consider Diaz the perfect fit for the job. The Colombian enjoyed an impressive campaign with Liverpool, scoring 17 goals and setting up eight more from 50 games.
His efforts helped the Reds secure the Premier League. Recent reports have suggested that the Catalans reached out to their Premier League counterparts to discuss the possibilities of a deal.
However, Liverpool apparently rebuffed their approach, stating that the 28-year-old is not for sale. Interestingly, it now appears that the Reds have promised Diaz that he will be allowed to leave for less than his €80m valuation. The news could be a huge boost to the LaLiga champions’ plans.
Antonio Nusa has revealed that he supported Barcelona as a child. The Norwegian forward registered five goals and eight assists from 40 games across competitions this season for RB Leipzig.
While he prefers to operate on the left wing, Nusa is equally adept at playing on the right as well as through the middle. His versatility has already turned heads at multiple clubs across the continent, and he was also linked with the Catalans last summer.
Speaking recently to TV2 Sport (via Barca Universal), the 20-year-old said he would like to share the pitch with Lamine Yamal.
Nusa is under contract with RB Leipzig until 2029.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer’s Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina’s glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
