FC Barcelona are exploring new options to strengthen their right flank this winter. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan club are closely monitoring Julian Ryerson, a Borussia Dortmund full-back, as a potential reinforcement to support Jules Koundé for the second half of the season.
At 28 years old, the Norwegian international has established himself as a reliable performer in the Bundesliga, making 14 appearances this season. Versatile, defensively solid, and capable of contributing going forward, Ryerson fits the profile Barcelona’s leadership is seeking to add competition and freshness to a position that has sometimes been stretched.
Barcelona Target a Versatile Right-Back
With a congested fixture list and squad limitations, Barça are looking to secure this key position without necessarily committing to a long-term investment. Ryerson’s name is therefore among several profiles currently under review by the sporting department.
It remains to be seen whether Borussia Dortmund would be willing to part ways with their full-back midway through the season, and under what conditions. A situation that will be closely followed in the coming weeks.
