The Blaugrana have reportedly identified a key target to fill an important position.
Barcelona have reportedly entered the race for Atalanta midfielder Ederson as they sought to clog the pivot-shaped role in front of their defence.

Like Rodri said — Barcelona star threatens FIFA, UEFA with strike
Barcelona's Jules Kounde has lent his voice to the campaign against fixture congestion.

Since Sergio Busquets left Barcelona in the summer of 2023 for Inter Miami, the club have scoured the market for a replacement. However, their financial situation has handicapped them.

This summer, they were linked with a number of targets in the position but failed to sign anyone. Marc Bernal, a 17-year-old from La Masia, started the season in the position and looked an ideal fit before sustaining a season-long injury.
The club is back evaluating the market for defensive midfielders and have now been linked with the Atalanta star. TNT Sport Brasil reports that the Blaugrana have him high on their list and could make a move for him next summer.
However, other clubs like Manchester United, Juventus, and Newcastle have also been linked with him, and the Catalan side will have to compete with them for his signature.
