The Belgian is reportedly eager to join Barçelona this summer.

Dortmund, though, are not open to a sale. With only 10 days remaining in the transfer window, they don’t want to be forced to sell a starter. Furthermore, Meunier is not only of relevance to Barcelona.

Manchester United is also a possibility; they have been connected to a number of right-back candidates, including Barcelona’s Sergino Dest, who is no longer needed at Camp Nou. Meunier, however, has Barcelona on his travel agenda.

Meunier, a professional footballer for Belgium, started his career with the local team Virton before moving on to Club Brugge.

The Belgian departed for Paris Saint-Germain in 2016 before returning to Dortmund in 2020. Since then, he has worked for them in the Bundesliga.

Meanwhile…

Lecce have reportedly opened talks with Barcelona about a possible transfer of Samuel Umtiti.

The updates come from Gianluca di Marzio and Fabrizio Romano who reckon that the defender could finally seal an exit before the close of the transfer window.

Di Marzio appears to be rather enthusiastic about the move and claims that Umtiti is “extremely close” to joining Lecce and that “advanced conversations” are now occurring.

The 28-year-old center-back, who has already been informed that he is not in Barcelona’s plans for the season, is reportedly interested in a loan move.
