#5 Boubacar Kamara (Olympique de Marseille | Age: 21 | Centre-Back)

Another centre-back whom Barcelona could sign is Olympique Marseille’s Boubacar Kamara. The 21-year-old French defender is a product of Marseille’s youth academy and he has become a starter for the club at such a young age.

His rise to the senior team was phenomenal and he started playing regularly in the first team since he was 19 years old. He has had two years of top league experience, represents France’s under-21 team, and is on his way to earning his first cap for the senior team.

Kamara is an immensely talented player and he could go on to become one of the best defenders in the world given his rapid growth. He is also a versatile player and can play on both the right-back position and left-back position. He is a youngster who plays like a veteran, is strong on the ball, and is not afraid to go in for tackles.

Kamara is a very passionate player and Barcelona will surely benefit from his arrival. Transfermarkt values him at 28 million pounds but Marseille might be willing to sell him for less due to the financial crisis in the Ligue 1.
