Barcelona Eye Surprise Move for Atlético Madrid’s Reinildo Mandava

Barcelona is reportedly interested in Atlético Madrid’s key defender, Reinildo Mandava, as they aim to strengthen their roster for the summer 2025 transfer window. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Mozambican left-back has drawn the attention of Barcelona’s management due to his reliable performances and extensive experience.

Mandava has been a crucial player for Diego Simeone, participating in all 11 of Atlético’s matches this season, making him a strong candidate to bolster Barcelona’s defense. At 30, his impressive form has caught the eye of sporting director Deco and others at the club, positioning him as a prime target for a free transfer when his contract ends next summer.

With Barcelona looking to enhance their left-back options, Mandava’s availability and proven skill set could make him a perfect fit, particularly given the financial limitations at Camp Nou. If the transfer goes ahead, it would represent a significant, cost-free enhancement to Hansi Flick’s squad.
