Barcelona are reportedly planning a change in goal next summer amid concerns over Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s return.
The German international has seen his campaign cut short following a serious knee injury and resultant surgery.
The setback allowed Barcelona to activate a La Liga rule on signing a free agent as goalkeeping cover outside the transfer window.
As per reports from Diario Sport, Barcelona are ready to battle Manchester City for Porto star Diogo Costa in 2025.
The Portugal international is available as part of a potential €45m transfer deal, if either side formalises their interest, and make an offer.
Barcelona will assess the situation again at the start of 2025, but Szczesny will not stay beyond his short term deal which ends in June, and there doubts over Ter Stegen’s performance level on his return.
