#2 Victor Moses to Barcelona – 2017, Sport (Spanish publication)
Barcelona have had their struggles in the right back position and still haven’t replaced Dani Alves who left last summer. For a large period last season Sergi Roberto, originally a centre midfielder, played a lot of his football at right wing back due to there being nobody who is a right back in the Barcelona squad.
This is the reason why the Catalans were linked with current Chelsea full-back Victor Moses, who himself isn’t even technically a right back, but more of a wing back or right winger. His defensive abilities are questionable and before this year, it looked a certainty he would leave the Blues and join a team much lower in the Premier League. Therefore, it was a huge shock that Barcelona were supposedly interested in the Nigerian.
Moses was playing for West Ham on loan just last season so it was very surprising and weird that Barcelona were rumoured to be interested in the 26-year-old.
