Despite having a valid contract with Milan's Olimpia for the upcoming year, reports have surfaced suggesting that Barcelona might activate his buyout clause, estimated to be between 500,000 and 600,000 euros.

Furthermore, it's reported that Nibo is expected to sign a two-year deal with the Spanish giants, worth 6,000,000 euros, or 3,000,000 per season.

The Catalan club could be looking at a complete overhaul of their center rotation next summer, as the contracts of Jan Vesely and Willy Hernangomez are set to expire, much like Youssoupha Fall's. Currently, there are no indications that any of these players will have their contracts extended.

In addition to Nibo, Moses Wright, who is having an excellent season with Zalgiris, is also being mentioned as a potential reinforcement for Barcelona's center positions.

Josh Nibo has averaged 10.9 points and 5.5 rebounds in 22 EuroLeague games this season.
