5 Spaniards who would be perfect for Barcelona

#1 Carlos Soler (Valencia)

Soler be the answer for Barcelona

Barcelona could look to raid Valencia again, and this time for their midfield maestro Soler. At just 20, he could be the answer to Iniesta as the Catalan giants source a new replacement for one of their club legends.

He was fielded as a striker when in the Valencia youth-setup but was quickly withdrawn into an attacking midfield role by his coaches. His nature is to receive the ball and drive into the heart of the opposition.

Soler prefers his role as an attacking midfielder, as this allows him plenty of opportunities to bring the ball forward and fashion chances for his teammates, something which Iniesta likes to do currently.

Manchester United have previously been linked the midfielder, so it could mean that the Barca board would have to act fast if they are to successful in landing the Spanish under-21 international.

However, he will not come cheap as the Catalans will have to meet his €80 million release clause.
