Barcelona have reportedly entered the race to sign Monza forward Gustavo Varela, according to Spanish outlet Barca Blaugranes. The 2026-27 Serie A season has seen Varela emerge as a scoring threat for the Lombardy club, with the player netting in Monza's match against Bologna at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on October 31.

The Catalan giants are said to be monitoring the attacker's progress as they explore options to reinforce their attacking department. Varela's performances in the Italian top flight have attracted attention from several European clubs, with Barcelona now joining the pursuit.

Monza, who have established themselves as a competitive Serie A side, would likely demand a significant fee for one of their key offensive players. The October goal against Bologna highlighted Varela's ability to find the net against established opposition.
