It has been reported that Barcelona is poised to finalize a deal to sign Jonathan Tah, a center-back for Bayer Leverkusen. Leverkusen finally decided not to sell Tah and instead agreed to let him leave on a free transfer in 2025. Tah is approaching the last six months of his contract and made it obvious throughout the summer that he would not be signing an extension. Many teams have shown interest in the Bundesliga champion, but Barcelona has jumped ahead in the competition for Tah’s services since they continue to prioritize free transfers as they work out their financial issues.
It was SPORT that broke the news of Barcelona’s optimism. An informal offer of a three-year deal with a four-year option has been made to Tah, who can begin talks with potential suitors in January. Despite his lack of commitment to move to Camp Nou, there is a great degree of optimism that a deal could be finalized in the upcoming weeks.
Going one step further, Tah has already made the decision to join Barcelona, according to Mundo Deportivo. The second report talks about a five-year deal for the 28-year-old, who is admired by Deco, the sports director, and manager Hansi Flick.
Jonathan Tah will end up at Barcelona next season
The truth is that Tah hasn’t given Barça his firm “yes, I’m in” despite the discussions being really favorable. These remarks are made while there is still no solution in the center-defense region. His final decision is expected to be made in the upcoming weeks, which suggests that he will begin playing at Camp Nou on June 30.
Hansi Flick has been asking for it ever since he was transferred, and Laporta will give it to him. With the arrival of 2025, Barça has a nearly finalized deal to acquire Jonathan Tah, the center-back for Leverkusen. His arrival is being negotiated, and his contract expires on June 30. It’s so much so that the German center-back is being considered while planning for the upcoming season.
The team will have more choices thanks to Jonathan Tah’s profile. Due to his arrival, the team should be able to let go of two players who are not crucial to Hansi Flick. The contracts of Christensen and Eric García expire in 2026. The goal of the transactions is to secure a sizeable amount of money. Both appear to be willing to depart, but they are imposing requirements on their future team selection.
