Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in La Liga on Sunday, December 13.

Sunday morning's La Liga transfer talk news roundup:


Barcelona identify Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez as potential transfer target?

Barcelona are reportedly contemplating whether to launch a bid for Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez.

While the precarious financial situation at Camp Nou has been well documented, the Catalan giants require new additions in various areas of the pitch.

According to Sport, Martinez has emerged as a potential addition for the La Liga outfit after impressing during his time at Ajax.

The 22-year-old is capable of playing in a number of defensive positions, including centre-back, where Barcelona need a long-term alternative to Gerard Pique.

Martinez, who has previously been linked with a future move to a bigger club, has two-and-a-half years left on his contract.

Barcelona are unlikely to put together any significant bids until the summer transfer window.



Ronald Koeman 'still wants Liverpool's Georginio Wijnaldum at Barcelona'

Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman is reportedly still determined to reunite with Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum at Camp Nou.

The former Newcastle United man is in the final few months of his Anfield deal and has been tipped to complete a switch to Catalonia in the coming months.

Despite speculation over his future, Wijnaldum has been a key player for Jurgen Klopp once again this season, and the Reds are supposedly looking to tie the 30-year-old down to a new and improved deal at Liverpool.

However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Koeman is desperate to bolster his midfield ranks at Camp Nou and is still considering a move for Wijnaldum, whom he worked with while in charge of the Netherlands.

Wijnaldum can negotiate with clubs abroad from January onwards, but with Barcelona still reeling from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, the report claims that striking a deal for the Liverpool man next month is highly unlikely.

Eric Garcia and Memphis Depay continue to be linked with moves to Barcelona as well, but Koeman is understood to have earmarked Wijnaldum as his priority target.
