REPORT: Barcelona Handed Blow as Potential Sergio Busquets Replacement Could Join Napoli

According to El Nacional, Barcelona’s potential Sergio Busquets replacement Guido Rodriguez could join Napoli in the summer.

Rodriguez plays for La Liga side Real Betis.

Barcelona are scouting for options to sign a replacement for Sergio Busquets. The Spaniard will leave on a free transfer in the summer and join Inter Miami.

While Rodriguez is on their shortlist, the Blaugrana face competition from Napoli. The Serie A champions are looking to reinforce their midfield as they look to get off to a new start under new manager Rudi Garcia.

According to the aforementioned report, Rodriguez is fearful that he could become a squad player at Barca, something he’s not interested to become. Hence, he prefers a move to Napoli instead.
