Previous attempts to secure Vanderson's signature have been complicated by Barcelona's ongoing financial constraints. However, sources close to the club indicate that the defender remains a priority for sporting directors, including Deco, as they explore late-window reinforcements.

According to ESPN, Vanderson is among the top options Barcelona is evaluating before the transfer window closes. Any potential deal hinges on the club's ability to offload players, with rumors swirling about possible departures from the Camp Nou.
