RB Leipzig star 'wants to come' to Barcelona
RB Leipzig star Castello Lukeba has set his sights firmly on a move to La Liga, with reigning Spanish champions Barcelona. That's according to Diario Sport , who have on Thursday provided an insight into the situation.
It is of course common knowledge across the continent at this point that Barcelona are on the lookout for reinforcements at the heart of defence.

After failing to bring in a new centre-back over the summer, an early-season injury crisis has seen the lack of depth in Hansi Flick's backline laid bare.
Deco and co, in turn, are currently scouring Europe and beyond, for the right profile to slot into Flick's demanding system.
And one such option, as alluded to above, has presented itself in the form of Castello Lukeba. As per a report from Sport:
'Lukeba has announced that he has signed with Excellence Sport, the same agency as Jules Koundé, whose agent met with Deco a few days ago in Barcelona. Lukeba's name was on the table.'
Not only that, but it is also noted that 'the player wants to come'. Any Barcelona swoop for Frenchman Lukeba is considered more likely next summer than in January.
