Top 7 midfielders Barcelona should target

Spain Training Session
Iniesta's departure has led to a big void in Barca's midfield.

#4 Thiago Alcantara (Bayern Munich)

Bayern Muenchen v Eintracht Frankfurt - DFB Cup Final
It seems like a perfect time for Thiago's homecoming.

The Bayern Munich star is actually a product of FC Barcelona famous youth academy La Masia and during his days with the Catalan giants, many considered him to be the perfect long-term replacement for Andres Iniesta before he was sold to the Bavarian giants.

The Spanish international is considered to be one of the best midfielders in the game and he has made quite a name for himself in Europe with his passing game and dribbling. He is already well versed with the city and Barca's playing style so settling into the team is unlikely to be a problem for him.

His skill set, age and the Blaugrana's present need for a midfield enforcer should be a perfect time for his homecoming to the Camp Nou. Tactically as well he should be a perfect signing as he would a perfect partner in crime for Sergio Busquets in the middle of the park for Barcelona.

According to reports Bayern Munich are willing to sell him this summer if a right offer comes as they look to rebuild their team.
