Barcelona are reportedly keeping tabs on four right backs ahead of the summer transfer window.
Although Jules Kounde has done well in the right-back position, Deco, the sporting director, and manager Hansi Flick think the team would benefit from having a natural right full-back.
According to Barca Universal, the Spanish giants are now evaluating four primary candidates for the role.
Who Are The Defenders Barcelona Are Monitoring?
Vanderson
The first player on the list is Vanderson, who is seen as Deco’s favorite, is young but has elite level experience and a style of play that aligns with Barcelona’s values.

The defender for AS Monaco has been on the Blaugrana’s radar for a while, is seen to be a financially feasible target, and the deal is thought to be completed without any significant problems.
Marc Pubill
Almeria defender, Marc Pubill is another player on Barcelona radar. Seen as a long-term target for the Blaugrana, the Spain U-21 international came close to joining Barca last summer, but the transfer was ultimately thwarted by the club’s registration problems.
The young right-back, nevertheless, is still a target for the Catalans, whose signing might become extremely inexpensive should Almeria be demoted this season.
Jeremie Frimpong
Bayer Leverkusen ace, Jeremie Frimpong is also a player the five-time Champions League winners are considering. Shortly after Hansi Flick’s arrival last summer, the Dutchman was strongly linked to Barcelona, and it looks like the team are considering him again.
Frimpong is regarded as a top-tier player and a revolutionary full-back.
Givairo Read
Feyenoord sensation, Givairo Read has reportedly been offered to Barcelona and is seen as a good, long-term investment with an eye on the future.
With their financial woes still in place, it remains to be seen, who Barca will sign to strengthen their right back position during the summer window.
