Earlier this year, Barcelona agreed a deal with Ajax for Frenkie de Jong and the midfielder became the La Liga winners’ first signing of the 2019/20 season.
Thursday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo now claims the Catalan club are looking for ‘minimum four signings’ after completing the Netherlands international’s transfer.
Ernesto Valverde’s side are hoping to bring in a left-back, a centre-back and two more attackers in the summer transfer window.
Jordi Alba is the first choice left-back at Camp Nou and his employer wants to a backup for him.
Barcelona are also looking to ease burden from Luis Suarez’s shoulders and improve competition by signing a No 9.
The priority signing in attack is Antoine Griezmann, who has already confirmed he will leave Atletico Madrid.
The World Cup winner’s release clause will drop from €200m to €120m on July 1st and the Blaugrana remain hopeful of closing the former Real Sociedad star’s signing next month.
De Jong’s teammate and compatriot Matthijs de Ligt is a priority in the centre-back position. He and Griezmann are currently on international duty and the duo are delaying a decision on their future.
Mundo says the Dutchman’s case has become a ‘soap opera’ because of his agent Mino Raiola and if Barca fail to sign De Ligt, they will not pick someone else.
There could be the possibility that goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen and right-back Nelson Semedo leave the club due to a lack of opportunities. 
If Barcelona receive a mammoth bid for Philippe Coutinho or Ousmane Dembélé, then exits are possible.
The report explains the minimum number of signings Barca expect is four and the number may increase if the aforementioned players look for a new club in the summer.
