Barring an unexpected turn, Jonathan Tah will be FC Barcelona's first signing for the 2025-26 season. The German defender, currently with Bayer Leverkusen, has made a firm decision and turned down financially more attractive offers, including one from Bayern Munich, to fulfill his desire to wear the blue and red shirt.

Sources close to the player assure that his determination is unwavering. In fact, a meeting is scheduled in Barcelona in the coming weeks to finalize the details of his transfer. According to MundoDeportivo, his relationship with Hansi Flick, who coached him in the German national team, has been crucial in his decision. The Barça coach deems him an ideal piece to strengthen the defense for the upcoming season.

He would arrive at Barcelona completely for free

Barcelona's interest in Tah is not new. In the past summer transfer window, the club tried to secure his services, but Leverkusen refused to negotiate. Now, with his contract expiring on June 30, Tah is free to decide his future and has not hesitated to prioritize the Blaugrana project over other options.

Although the Catalan club needs to resolve certain internal aspects, like a possible departure of a center-back to make room for him, the German is willing to wait. His determination to join Barça is so strong that he has rejected economically superior offers. Moreover, he has always admired the Culés since his childhood.

With an imposing physique and a great performance in the Bundesliga and the Champions League, Tah is ready to make the leap to LaLiga. Now, it's only a matter of Barcelona making the necessary moves to finalize his arrival.
