Barcelona target Boca Juniors keeper Rossi as Ter Stegen successor

Barcelona are considering a move for Boca Juniors keeper Agustín Rossi, according to reports in Catalonia. Barça were impressed by Rossi during the friendly encounter with Boca at the Maradona Cup and although a formal offer is yet to materialize, the Liga side are said to be preparing a bid for the 26-year-old stopper.

Rossi on Barcelona's radar

Barça are facing the possible departure of second-choice keeper Neto during the January window and are in the market for a long-term successor to Marc-André ter Stegen. Catalan daily Sport confirmed that Rossi, who received a call-up to the Argentina national team last September, has emerged as the number one target for the Camp Nou board.

Rossi’s contract at La Bombonera expires in December 2023 and the Argentinean side are looking to offer him an improved deal based on his performances over the past season.
