BARCA HOPES TO CHANGE BAJCETIC’S NEXT DESTINATION AS TRANSFER WINDOW CLOSES

Moreover, Barca’s emergence hopes to change Bajcetic’s next destination as the transfer window closes on Friday.

Furthermore, Bajcetic left his hometown club, Celta Vigo, in 2020 to join Liverpool.

The 19-year-old has made 22 appearances under manager Jurgen Klopp for the first team.

Klopp has since helped Bajcetic transition from center-back to a midfielder.

He has since completed a full pre-season after injuries slowed down his progress the past few seasons.

Barcelona had hoped a loan move for Liverpool's Stefan Bajcetić would help fill the void left by injured Marc Bernal.

GAVI, DE JONG INJURIES FORCE BARCA TO FILL MIDFIELD SPOT AFTER BERNAL’S INJURY

Furthermore, injuries to Gavi and Frenkie de Jong forced Barca to fill its midfield after Bernal got injured.

Moreover, the La Liga club also lost Ilkay Gundongan, who returned to Manchester City.

Barca is pushing for Bajcetic, as he does not command a huge salary and will only arrive on a potential loan deal.

Financial obligations with La Liga have hampered Barca in adding players to boost their lineup.

The club saw Dani Olmo miss two games of the season before he made his Barca debut on Monday.
