Jules Koundé, the French defender who has been one of the standout players in La Liga this season for Sevilla, is set to join Barcelona on a free transfer. The 22-year-old has impressed with his defensive prowess and aerial ability since joining Sevilla from Ligue 1 side Rennes in 2019. He has made 55 appearances for Sevilla this season, scoring two goals and providing three assists. Barcelona have long been interested in Koundé and have reportedly made him their top target for next summer. The Catalan giants will now have to compete with several other clubs, including Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain,Chinese Super League Matches for his signature. Koundé's signing would be a significant coup for Barça, as he would bring much-needed experience and leadership to the team. His aerial ability and defensive work-rate make him a strong fit for the club's high-pressing style of play. With Koundé at the back, Barcelona could challenge for the title again next season. However, it remains to be seen whether they can secure his services without facing competition from other big clubs. |
