Alena, Firpo and Matheus Fernandes all linked with January exits

Alena could join Getafe on a loan deal with an option to buy while Firpo could move to a fellow La Liga side on a permanent transfer.

3 January exits could be on the cards at Barcelona, reliable Gerard Romero of RAC1 reveals.

Firstly, Carles Alena is heavily linked with Getafe and could join on a loan deal with an option to buy - Getafe will also cover the midfielder's salary.

Secondly, Junior Firpo has an offer from an unnamed La Liga club and Barca may consider a permanent deal.

Finally, Matheus Fernandes could leave on loan but there's nothing concrete yet.

Alena has made 5 appearances so far this season while Matheus rarely makes the squad and has only capped 17 minutes of playing time.

Meanwhile, Firpo has provided 1 assist in 8 matches - he delivered an impressive display in the 1-1 Eibar draw when he was called upon to replace suspended Jordi Alba.
