Barcelona believe they could convince Kevin De Bruyne to join them in the summer of 2025. However, Barcelona's financial struggles may hinder their ability to meet his salary demands of £400,000 per week.

Team Talk reports on Barcelona's potential interest in signing Kevin De Bruyne from Man City.

Barcelona is considering Kevin De Bruyne as a potential replacement for Dani Olmo. It is reported that De Bruyne has decided to leave Manchester City at the end of the season, indicating that Barcelona will pursue him then, when he will be available on a free transfer. Barcelona will need to create space in their wage cap to accommodate his £400,000 per week salary. The Catalan club is starting to come to terms with the potential loss of Olmo due to their breach of the La Liga wage cap, which might force Olmo to leave for free if no solution is found. With Olmo's likely departure, Barcelona views De Bruyne as the most similar profile to fill his position. However, Barcelona is facing competition as De Bruyne is also contemplating moves to the MLS or Saudi Arabia, where he could potentially earn similar or higher wages. This situation makes it crucial for Barcelona to make several financial adjustments before they can secure De Bruyne's signature, especially given the high salary demands.
