Barcelona should focus on other positions rather than signing one more winger next summer.

Cengiz Under is an exciting talent, but right now Barcelona is not the right destination for his development.

How strong that interest is and whether Barcelona will make a move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
