Barcelona's pursuit of a January signing is contingent upon the approval of manager Hansi Flick, according to Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni. The 27-year-old Italian midfielder's interest in joining the Catalan club resurfaced during the summer transfer window, as Barcelona sought to bolster their defense. However, despite Bastoni signing a contract with Inter Milan, the move did not materialize due to Flick's discretion.
Barcelona has since intensified efforts to recruit new talent in the center-back position for the remainder of the season, with Bastoni again being considered. In a report by Mundo Deportivo, Bastoni stated that he would only agree to a transfer to Barcelona if he received a direct endorsement from Flick, emphasizing the importance of being a priority for both the club's current coach and former mentor, Deco.
