Barcelona loans Diego Kochen to Lyngby with buy option

Barcelona has completed the loan of goalkeeper Diego Kochen to Lyngby for the 2026-27 season. The agreement includes a €1.5 million buy option and a 40% sell-on clause if Lyngby decides to sign him permanently next summer. Kochen, 20, aims to secure regular playing time after being the third-choice goalkeeper at Barcelona. His departure follows the exits of Inaki Pena and Ander Astralaga this summer. Kochen hopes to establish himself as a first-team player in the Danish Superliga, which has garnered attention for developing talent.
