They paid 60 million for him and now they don't want him, Barca's new mistake

Barcelona are facing difficult decisions in their squad ahead of the upcoming transfer window, and one of them concerns French center-back Jules Koundé, for whom, according to Mundo Deportivo, club is willing to listen to offers due to overcrowding in that position.

Despite his quality, Koundé has been moved to right-back on a few occasions this season due to the circumstances of the team, offering a more than questionable performance that has led the sporting direction to value a transfer that would serve as a step to clean up part of the battered accounts of the azulgrana club.

With several players like Araújo, Christensen, Íñigo Martínez or Pau Cubarsí competing for the starting positions in central defense, Barcelona is at a crossroads with the future of Koundé, who after costing 50 million euros at the time, has not ended up being the defensive leader that was expected, hence the constant rumors about his departure from the team led by Xavi Hernández during the next window of the transfer market.
