Will the Catalan giants make some late moves?

Barcelona are facing a race against time to wrap up some late transfer business before the window shuts on Monday.

Defender Jean-Clair Todibo is one player who has been linked with an exit for some time, but it’s still not clear if he will go and where.

Gerard Romero at RAC1 reports that Borussia Dortmund have joined the race for the Frenchman who spent half of last season on loan in the Bundesliga with Schalke.

Fulham have reportedly already made a bid for Todibo, but it seems the 20-year-old is not too keen on heading to the newly-promoted Premier League side.

Talking defenders and Barcelona seem to be getting nowhere in their attempts to bring Eric Garcia back from Manchester City. According to various reports, Barca have upped their offer to €15 million but that’s still not enough for the Citizens.

Pep Guardiola’s side value Garcia at around €25m but there’s a suggestion a deal would be done for €18-20m. Or Barca could simply wait a season when he’ll be free.
