Barcelona has been granted to opportunity to make an emergency signing by the Spanish Football Federation and La Liga despite the close of the regular transfer window.
Barcelona was given permission on Monday to make an emergency signing and have 15 days to complete a transfer.
The injury to Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele has given the La Liga champions the chance to make an emergency signing and the Camp Nou directors are set to bring Martin Braithwaite to the Camp Nou for a fee of €18 million.
The Leganes forward and Barcelona are set to agree to a three-and-a-half-year deal that runs until the summer of 2023.
It would be a surprise if Barcelona seal a deal for Braitwaite, 28, a player that was playing in the English Championship just two seasons ago before moving to Leganes.
