New Barcelona target emerges for Premier League right back.

Barcelona’s search for a right back has hit another obstacle as moves for Juan Foyth and Benjamin Pavard are ruled out due to financial reasons. With no natural right back in the squad, Barcelona is looking for viable options before the summer transfer window. Now, a new target has emerged in the form of Joel Veltman, who currently plays for Brighton and Hove Albion in the English Premier League.

According to Total Football via Sport, Veltman is on Barcelona’s radar due to his impressive performances this season. The Dutch defender has been a key player for Brighton, playing in 26 league games this season, and his contract with the club expires in June. This could be an attractive proposition for Barcelona, as they may not have to pay a transfer fee for the player.

Barcelona has been facing financial difficulties in recent years, and the acquisition of Veltman without a transfer fee could be a smart move for the club. With a limited budget, the club will have to weigh their options carefully to ensure they get the best value for their money.

If the deal goes through, Veltman would be an excellent addition to Barcelona’s squad, providing much-needed depth in the right-back position. While Jules Kounde is set to continue as first-choice right-back, Veltman’s versatility could come in handy in case of injuries or suspensions.

It remains to be seen if Barcelona will pursue Veltman’s signature, but the Dutch defender’s availability could make him a prime target for the club as they continue their search for a right-back.
