Barcelona's Diego Kochen to receive loan offers from second division clubs

Summary

FC Barcelona's 20-year-old goalkeeper Diego Kochen is expected to leave on loan this summer as the club restructures its goalkeeping department. With Joan Garcia and Wojciech Szczesny set to lead the position, Kochen's opportunities for first-team play appear limited. Reports indicate that he has received interest from several clubs in the Spanish second division. Kochen has been at Barcelona since 2019 and has served primarily as a third-choice goalkeeper. He seeks regular playing time to further his development, having made 37 appearances for Barça Atletic, including 20 matches last season where he kept seven clean sheets.
