FC Barcelona made a move for Ruud Nijstad, but the transfer is off. Despite talks with FC Twente, the Spanish club failed to reach an agreement for the 18-year-old central defender, according to Football-Espana.

The Dutch prospect will therefore continue his development at Twente. A contract extension is reportedly in the works, with his current deal running through the summer of 2027. This season, Nijstad has featured in nine Eredivisie matches and delivered one assist. Barcelona, meanwhile, will have to look elsewhere to bolster their defensive line.
