Barcelona's Interest in Perisic
Croatian Ivan Perisic, 36 years old, has come under the radar of Barcelona's head coach, German Hans Flick, who sees the need to bolster the attack with wingers who possess flexibility and tactical balance.
While Barcelona continues negotiations with Liverpool to sign Colombian Luis Diaz as a potential replacement for Raphinha on the left side, Flick has shown particular interest in bringing Perisic to enhance the right side, especially in the absence of Lamine Yamal.
Despite the slow negotiations between Barcelona and Perisic, the player is still held in high regard within the club, especially after his remarkable performance with PSV Eindhoven last season.
According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", PSV Eindhoven has made a new two-year offer to Perisic, and local reports indicate he is close to renewing, but the strong relationship between Flick and Perisic may give Barcelona an edge if the player decides to change his destination.
Sources within the Catalan club confirmed that Perisic's transfer is not out of the question, but it is currently unexpected, given the careful examination of options due to the financial situation; however, Perisic is considered a valuable opportunity as he is a free agent with extensive experience.
Perisic played 35 matches with PSV Eindhoven last season across all competitions, scoring 16 goals and providing 11 assists, and according to the Spanish newspaper, the player does not demand a high salary, as he seeks to maintain his readiness for participation in the 2026 World Cup.
