Barcelona like to play with three at the back, and four in midfield.
And it’s feasible they’ll stick to that formation next season, especially given how it’s helped Sergio Dest and Jordi Alba kick on.
Sergio Busquets remains an integral piece of the Catalan giants’ jigsaw, even though he’s another player on the wane.
But Barcelona could strengthen in that department by snapping up Wijnaldum.
His muted celebrations in Liverpool’s 2-1 win over West Brom on Sunday suggest he’s poised to leave Anfield behind and Barcelona are confident of securing his signature.
