RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for FC Barcelona.

According to Catalan newspaper Sport, FC Barcelona monitored the 20-year-old during the recent international break and had scouts in attendance for Norway's 4-1 win over Italy, which saw Nusa get on the scoresheet. 

Capable of operating on either wing, Nusa could add depth and intensify competition for Barcelona’s attacking spots.

The La Liga giants have also been linked with another Leipzig player, Assan Ouedraogo, who is currently sidelined with an injury.

It's been reported that Ouedraogo could generate as much as €80-100 million, and while Nusa is unlikely to cost that much, he would still bring in a significant fee for Leipzig should a sale happen.

RB Leipzig reportedly paid €21 million to sign him from Club Brugge in 2024, and since then, he has racked up six goals and eight assists across 49 appearances.
