Spanish club Barcelona have added Castello Lukeba, who plays for Germany’s RB Leipzig, to their transfer shortlist as they look to strengthen their defence.
Fanat.az reports that the news was published by Mundo Deportivo.
The Catalan club want to sign the 23-year-old Frenchman in the winter transfer window. Barcelona’s hierarchy consider Lukeba a suitable option because of his ability to play both at left-back and in central defence.
The player is also reportedly interested in continuing his career at Barcelona. He recently joined the same agency as Jules Koundé. This move could facilitate talks over a potential transfer.
However, RB Leipzig reportedly have no intention of selling the defender during the winter transfer window. The German club could demand €80 million for Lukeba in January.
Castello Lukeba’s contract with RB Leipzig runs until the summer of 2029.
