Milan Skriniar (Inter Milan), Josko Gvardiol (RB Leipzig), William Saliba (Arsenal), Inigo Martinez (Athletic Club) and Roger Ibanez (Roma) are considered the alternatives if Barcelona don't sign Jules Kounde, reports Gerard Romero.
Skriniar and Gvardiol are definitely the two standout names here. They would probably cost as much as Kounde - €60m each - or even more.
The other three players seem more of low-cost options as it should take €40m or less to sign each of them.
As a reminder, Barcelona and Chelsea are in the race to sign Kounde, with the Blues having made an official offer already. The player is said to be more keen to join Blaugrana.
