Barcelona are working to add more quality to their already impressive squad before the start of the new season. Hansi Flick’s team ended the 2024/25 campaign by winning the LaLiga title, the Copa del Rey and the Supercopa de Espana.
Meanwhile, the Catalans have rejected an offer for Ansu Fati from a Ligue 1 club. Elsewhere, a German goalkeeper has been advised to move to Galatasaray.
On that note, let’s look at the major Barcelona transfer stories from June 13, 2025.
Barcelona have turned down Monaco’s opening offer for Ansu Fati, according to MARCA. The Catalans are looking to move the Spaniard on this summer, with the player no longer in Hansi Flick’s plans.
The LaLiga champions were locked in talks with the Ligue 1 club regarding a move this year. However, Monaco apparently have no intention of signing the 22-year-old on a permanent deal.
Instead, the French club proposed a loan deal, and wanted Barcelona to cover the majority of his wages. The Catalans have rejected the offer, as they will only consider a loan deal with a purchase option.
Former Turkey assistant manager Kenan Kocak has advised Marc-Andre ter Stegen to join Galatasaray. The German goalkeeper’s future at Barcelona has come under doubt following the club’s pursuit of Espanyol’s Joan Garcia.
Ter Stegen has divided opinion among fans over the years, and has struggled with injuries as well. Recent reports have suggested that Galatasaray are now offering the 33-year-old an escape route from Camp Nou.
Speaking recently, as cited by AS, Kocak insisted that Ter Stegen would be the ideal replacement for Fernando Muslera at Istanbul.
He continued:
Acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano has recetly stated that Barcelona will trigger the player’s release clause soon.
Gerard Martin has revealed that he is happy at Camp Nou. The 23-year-old left-back has largely played second fiddle to Alejandro Balde at Barcelona and his future remains unclear ahead of the summer.
However, speaking to Jijantes as cited by Barca Universal, Martin suggested that he is not looking to leave the Catalans at the moment.
He continued:
Martin is under contract with the LaLiga champions until 2028.

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.
