Alderweireld has been one of the most consistent center-backs in world football and his experience at the top level will only help Barcelona. The 29-year-old has had a brilliant season and he is currently at the top of his game.

The Belgian has a €25 million release clause in his contract and a player of his quality is a proper bargain at that price. Alderweireld can also push Samuel Umtiti, Clement Lenglet and Gerard Pique for the starting place and that competition is what you need at a club like Barcelona.

Alderweireld will definitely make Barcelona's defense better as the Blaugrana don't really have the depth in their defensive ranks. Barring Lenglet, Pique, Umtiti, and Thomas Vermaelen who is clearly past his prime, there are no other options for Ernesto Valverde to choose from. So, Alderweireld could be an option Barcelona could go for.
