Alonso will thrive with Barcelona's system

Chelsea superstar, Marcos Alonso is one of the more suitable options that Barcelona should consider signing during this summer as they plan to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming campaign.

Known for his incredible pace, amazing vision, decent passing and the ability to send the ball into the back of the net at the vital moments, the 27-year-old has earned recognition as one of the finest defenders in the Premier League. The Spaniard has the strength, composure and a style of play that would enable him to thrive in Barcelona's defense.

Alonso's ability to retain possession, distribute decent passes and play the ball on the ground with confidence and calmness will enable him to succeed at Camp Nou. The Spaniard could challenge Jordi Alba's place in the starting line-up or serve as a quality backup to his compatriot.

He can also be deployed as a midfielder, thanks to his incredible versatility allowing him to operate in multiple positions. A free-kick specialist too, Alonso would be a great acquisition for the Catalan giants.
