“He’s Coming Home” – Amid Sergio Busquets’ Al Nassr Links to Play Alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona’s $27 Million Replacement Provides Major Transfer Hint, Leaving Fans Baffled

The upcoming transfer window has animated the soccer world. Several high-profile transfers are in sight. One such high-profile departure is that of FC Barcelona veteran Sergio Busquets. Busquets is heavily linked with a move to Al Nassr to play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo. However, a recent social media activity of a Moroccan superstar has excited the Blaugrana fans.

The rumors suggest the Moroccan is on the radar of Barcelona to replace outgoing Busquets. 

FC Barcelona Fans excited with midfielder’s social media activity

FC Barcelona is making rounds. The Blaugrana won the La Liga title on Sunday with four games remaining amid the potential return of Lionel Messi. However, their veteran Sergio Busquets will leave the club at the end of the season. He made the announcement recently after 15 years of service at Blaugrana. Meanwhile, Barcelona is already working on the replacement of the veteran midfielder. The club is active in the transfer market for a few months. Serie A side Fiorentina’s midfielder Sofyan Amrabat is on the club’s radar, especially after his World Cup performances for Morocco. Amrabat is valued at $27 million, and his contract with the Serie A side runs until June 2024.

Amrabat liked a transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano’s tweet congratulating FC Barcelona for winning the title. It has excited Barcelona fans, who think the Moroccan is Busquets’ able replacement. One of the fans wrote, “He’s coming home.”

Many fans urged the 26-year-old to join the Blaugrana, while a few asked the club to sign him. Overall, fans are excited by the prospect of Amrabat joining Barcelona. Whether Amrabat joins Barcelona remains to be seen.

It seems that despite the financial woes, Catalan giants will be active in the transfer window. They are also working on reducing the wage bill to register a few contracts and bring Lionel Messi back. Busquets leaving the club will free a significant amount of wage bill. But the question arises where will Busquets play next season?

Will Busquets play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo?

Rumors suggest Saudi Arabian clubs are interested in the services of the veteran midfielder. One of the clubs is Al Nassr. If Al Nassr succeeds in their attempt, we can see Busquets playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo. It will make him one of the few players to have played with Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar Jr.
