Valverde: Barcelona open to more summer signings
Barcelona's summer transfer business is not over, according to coach Ernesto Valverde, who says the Blaugrana are likely to make more signings before the close of the window.
The Liga champions recently announced the capture of Brazilian winger Malcom from Bordeaux, beating Roma to the punch at the last minute.
Malcom became the club's third signing of the summer following Arthur Melo and Clement Lenglet's arrivals at Camp Nou.
“We're open to any possibility,” the coach told a news conference, “It's true that we've had some big departures in midfield so it's likely that we will make more signings.
“We will try to build the most competitive squad possible, keeping in mind that Andres [Iniesta] and Paulinho have left.”
When quizzed on what profile the club are looking for in terms of targets, he said: “It doesn't depend only on me, but on the club and what players are available.
“We want players that fit our style. We need people that can generate play through the middle – and if they can get forward into the box, too, even better.”
