What we know

Barcelona are monitoring Leeds centre-back Tarik Muharemović. His contract at Elland Road runs to 2031.

The club is eyeing a summer move, with TopMercato specifying a target of summer 2027. TEAMtalk reported on 1 Oct that Barcelona are continuing to monitor Muharemović after scouting him in the summer. Yahoo Sports and Fichajes reported on 5 Oct that Barcelona has its sights set on him. SportSport.ba added on 10 Oct that Leeds will not sell in January and a summer move would be difficult. BBC Sport and TopMercato reported on 29 Oct, with Sports Mole carrying the same story, that interest exists from Barcelona and other clubs. The asking price is a hurdle.

TopMercato cites a Leeds valuation of over €72m.
