While it is an understood belief that FC Barcelona are not yet done scouting through the market for more summer arrivals following the positive confirmations and developments for other targeted players, for others there are varying requirements that must first be fulfilled.
For instance, certain arrivals only become feasible for La Blaugrana once they have confirmed the departures of others. The hunt for forwards is one that such a scenario most applies to and has been assessed in a recent transfer update for Barcelona.
As per the latest report by Mundo Deportivo on the topic, Atletico Madrid forward Yannick Carrasco remains on the radar for Barcelona. However, his signing is not seen as a priority for the club until and unless they can ensure the departure of specific others beforehand.
The potential transfer of Barcelona forward Ferran Torres is one that, should it take place, would create enough space sporting-wise and generate adequate funds for the arrival of Carrasco at Barca.
The speculated fee for the Atletico Madrid forward is around €16 million, while a move for Ferran Torres is reported to happen along the regions of €40 million should it occur.
Carrasco is understood to be a player that is versatile and can provide Barcelona with a variety of attacking options if integrated within the team. However, due to the hesitance of Ferran Torres to leave Barcelona, the Atletico Madrid winger must consider his future carefully and has three options on the table.
His first option would be to continue waiting for a Barcelona side that assures him of their plan to sell off Ferran Torres and then be able to bring in the Belgian winger from Atletico.
The second option for Yannick Carrasco appears to be waiting out his contract until next year, 2024, and then potentially being able to join Barcelona anyways as a free agent.
Lastly, and what could be his final resort, the player can renew with Atletico and close the chapter entirely on a potential move to FC Barcelona indefinitely. He would then continue under Diego Simeone as he has done for the past several years.
