Barcelona send scouts to watch two players in Argentina vs Uruguay clash

La Liga giants Barcelona will have a team of representatives in attendance at Friday night’s meeting between South American heavyweights Argentina and Uruguay.

This will come with a view to keeping an eye on the performances of two players in particular.

Deco and the Camp Nou brass remain hard at work at present, to secure reinforcements at the heart of Hansi Flick’s backline for the 2nd half of the campaign.

With as much in mind, two potential candidates will be monitored from the stands later tonight, at the famous Bombonera.

As per a report from Diario Sport, Barcelona will have scouts present at the ground, to keep a close eye on both Lisandro Martínez, and Juan Rodríguez.

In the case of the former, the Blaugrana are considering moving to take advantage of his difficult situation at Manchester United, whilst the latter – a breakout star at Serie A outfit Cagliari – is considered a potential future star in the making in Catalunya’s capital.
