Barcelona are looking to swap players instead of outright purchases for this upcoming transfer window.

The current shutdown due to COVID-19 has reportedly cost the club up to $153 million.

Club vice president Jordi Cardoner said that swaps will be common due to the current financial situation.

"It will be part of the game. This is the way things will happen for next season in European clubs," said Cardoner.

Barcelona have been linked with Lautaro Martinez and Neymar.
