Barcelona ‘closely monitoring’ Feyenoord midfielder Mats Wieffer

Barcelona’s search for a new midfield pivot has now reportedly taken the club to Feyenoord and Dutch star Mats Wieffer.

Diario Sport report that the Catalans are “closely monitoring” the 23-year-old who looks to be a good option for Xavi’s side.

Wieffer ticks a lot of boxes when it comes to what Barca want. He’s young, does have experience and won’t cost a fortune.

The midfielder has caught the eye after helping Feyenoord win the league last season and becoming part of the Netherlands national team.

Wieffer did sign a contract extension back in May, that runs until 2027, but there is optimism he could be tempted to Camp Nou.
