Super-agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly working on a potential January transfer for a Barcelona defender, with Liverpool and Manchester United listed among the possible destinations, according to Barca Universal.

The report, published on November 6, 2026, indicates that Mendes is actively exploring exit options for the unnamed centre-back during the winter window. Both Premier League clubs are said to be monitoring the situation, though no formal bids have been confirmed.

Barcelona's defensive depth and financial considerations could make a mid-season departure feasible, but the player's identity and the club's asking price remain undisclosed.
