FC Barcelona in the process of offering the new star of Serbian football

FC Barcelona is already preparing for the future. After a phenomenal transfer window last summer, Barça have completed the arrival of Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and the extension of Ousmane Dembélé. In addition to the arrival of Ferran Torres in the 2021 winter transfer window and the return of Ansu Fati from injury. But the Catalan leaders also want to secure the future and would have thrown themselves at the new star of Serbian football, Stefan Mitrovic (20 years old).

As informs Sport, the talented 20-year-old attacking footballer is one of the young stars that the Blaugrana club have as their main target for this summer. The player’s father had also confirmed approaches. “As the player’s father, I have to say that Barça contacted us, but like other clubs did”, he wrote on Twitter. Stefan Mitrovic, whose market value is in full expansion, revealed himself with Red Star Belgrade.

Red Star Belgrade refused early offers

The club from the Serbian capital has also communicated for the future of its young nugget and announced that it had refused the first approaches. “We had offers from three very important clubs, offers over six million euros, but we didn’t sell him”, confirmed the sports director of Red Star Belgrade. Note that Mitrović could not have left the Red Star this winter since he was signed this summer from the Serbian club FK Radnički Niš and therefore could not play for three European clubs in one season.

After selling a large part of its workforce, including Memphis Depay, who signed up for Atlético de Madrid this winter, Barça could therefore tackle Stefan Mitrovic this summer. With a selection in September 2022 against Sweden (4-1), the young left-hander, who is used to playing on the left wing, has scored five goals this season in 17 games. His interesting performances in the Europa League prompted Barca and several European clubs to contact Red Star Belgrade to take an interest in him.
