According to the Daily Mail, Hincapie has now emerged as a leading target. Barcelona have reportedly cooled their interest in Inter centre-back Alessandro Bastoni and see the Ecuador international as a more attainable option. Hincapie’s ability to operate as a left-sided centre-back and his composure in possession fit Flick’s tactical demands. The 24-year-old is viewed as an ideal profile as Barcelona look to modernise their backline under the German coach.
