Real Betis center-back Natan has emerged as a potential transfer target for FC Barcelona. The 25-year-old Brazilian defender has been offered to the Catalan giants as they look to bolster their defensive line ahead of the upcoming transfer window.
According to Operative Information Center-OMM, citing foreign media reports, the potential transfer is estimated to cost approximately 30 million euros. While Barcelona's primary target remains Inter Milan's Alessandro Bastoni, Natan is being viewed as a more financially viable alternative to the expensive Italian international. During the current season, the defender has made 41 appearances for Betis across all competitions, contributing one assist.
FC Barcelona’s interest in defensive reinforcements comes amid the club's ongoing efforts to balance its financial situation while remaining competitive in La Liga and European competitions. Natan, whose market value is currently estimated at 25 million euros by Transfermarkt, has seen his profile rise significantly since moving to the Spanish league. The Catalan club's recruitment strategy has increasingly focused on identifying high-performing players within the domestic league who can provide depth and reliability without the premium price tags associated with top-tier European stars.
