The club have a lot of center-backs

Barcelona are thought to be keen to add Mikayil Faye to the first-team squad for next season after seeing the defender impress with Rafa Marquez’s Barca Atletic.

The only problem is that it may be difficult to find room for the Senegal international in the senior squad due to the overabundance of defenders.

Xavi already has Pau Cubarsi, Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde, Andreas Christensen and Inigo Martinez to choose from which doesn’t leave much room for another defender.

While Kounde has been playing at right-back, and Christensen in midfield, it’s not certain if that will still be the case next season.

Diario Sport reckon that if Faye is to be incorporated it could be bad news for Martinez. The defender also needs to be re-registered this summer which may prove problematic.

Barca also have Clement Lenglet and Eric Garcia due back from loan spells, but it’s thought the club are eager to sell both players in a bid to raise funds.

How do you think Barca’s defence should look next season? Name your center-backs in the comments below!
