Jules Kounde could return to centre-back role at Barcelona this season

Jules Kounde, having returned to Barcelona after summer break, may switch from right-back to centre-back. His inconsistent performances last season have prompted the club to consider a positional change, especially with Ronald Araujo on loan to Liverpool. Barcelona appears to have sufficient depth at right-back, leading to this potential tactical adjustment. Fabrizio Romano reports that Kounde's exit is not imminent, further indicating his role may evolve rather than be eliminated.
