5 players Barcelona must buy to compete with Real Madrid next season

#2 Leonardo Bonucci

Leonardo Bonucci

We can all agree on one thing, Barcelona have been shambolic at the back this season. Great, now we can move on.

There is no doubting that the new manager needs defensive reinforcements and shed the dead rubber in the squad. The gossip columns hav talked of a move for Juventus duo of Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci. While there is as much chance of the both the players joining Barcelona together as Justin Beiber joining Guns & Roses, Bonucci seems to be the perfect fit for Blaugrana.

Defensively impeccable, and is perhaps the best ball playing centerback in the world. Beside Pique and Umtiti, he can give a foundation to the Barcelona team which has been lacking in recent memory.
