Barcelona offered chance to sign teenage Bundesliga forward on Bosman deal

According to the cover page of Mundo Deportivo on November 1, Barcelona have been offered an opportunity to sign several footballers on free transfers next summer, one of which is Borussia Dortmund teenager Youssoufa Moukoko.

The 17-year-old is in the final year of his contract with the Bundesliga giants and is being linked with a summer exit. Barcelona are among the clubs credited with an interest in the young striker and now they have been offered his services in a free transfer in 2023.

Moukoko came through the ranks at Dortmund and made his first-team debut back in 2020. He has grown in prominence in the ongoing campaign, producing a return of four goals and six assists from 18 matches across all competitions.

The youngster has shown his mettle on the international stages as well, having bagged six goals in just five matches for the German Under-21 national team.

A goalscorer with immense potential, Moukoko’s potential availability on a free transfer is bound to attract Barcelona. The 17-year-old could be seen as an able deputy for Robert Lewandowski in the centre-forward slot at Spotify Camp Nou.

With Memphis Depay set for the exit doors either in January or at the end of the season, there will be room for the addition of another forward and young Moukoko could prove to be an intelligent addition for the Blaugrana.

With his services being offered, what remains to be seen is whether Barça take up the chance to sign him in 2023.

Apart from Moukoko, the Catalan giants have reportedly been offered an opportunity to land Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot as well, along with Chelsea midfield duo of Jorginho and N’Golo Kante.

Mateu Alemany recently confirmed that Barcelona will continue to look for free transfer opportunities in the market. It will be interesting to see if any of the aforementioned quartet end up at Camp Nou come next summer.
