Overview
- Joao Amaral, Barcelona’s new head of scouting, attended Norway’s World Cup qualifier against Italy, where Nusa scored in a 4-1 win at San Siro.
- Reporting from Sport, relayed by Football España and Yahoo Sports, indicates Barcelona are monitoring Nusa’s development rather than preparing a bid.
- Club planning for summer 2026 prioritizes a centre-back and a striker after Íñigo Martínez’s exit and an expected departure for Robert Lewandowski, according to reports.
- Barcelona will determine closer to next summer whether to pursue a permanent deal for on-loan Marcus Rashford, which would shape any winger recruitment.
- Barcelona’s interest in Nusa dates back to before his 2024 move to Leipzig, with the 20-year-old now a regular Norway international.
