Barcelona are reportedly planning to move for Celta Vigo defender Javi Galan during this summer's transfer window.
The 27-year-old joined Celta from Huesca last summer and has been in strong form for the Sky Blues during the 2021-22 campaign, contributing three assists in 31 appearances in all competitions.
Galan still has more than four years left to run on his contract in Vigo, but according to AS, Barcelona will attempt to sign the Spaniard in the upcoming market.
The report claims that the Catalan giants view him as the ideal player to compete with Jordi Alba for the left-back spot at Camp Nou next term.
Barcelona are allegedly impressed by Galan's 'speed and power' and will open talks with Celta once the 2021-22 campaign has concluded.
Benfica's Alex Grimaldo and Real Betis' Alex Moreno are believed to be alternatives to Galan this summer.
Alba remains a key player for Barcelona, making 34 appearances in all competitions this term, contributing two goals and nine assists in the process, but he recently turned 33 and has had injury problems in 2021-22.
