FC Barcelona is in a funny situation. If everything goes well on the field with a team from Hansi Flick who walks on the water and who asserts himself as a serious candidate for the double Liga-Ligue of the Champions, it is much more difficult behind the scenes. Between the Dani Olmo affair which is relaunched, the delays in the work of the stadium and the persistent financial problems, what happens in the offices is therefore much less glorious than what passes on the green rectangle.

Be that as it may, the sports leadership led by Deco will be able to have a little more room for maneuver this summer, thanks to the return to the rule of 1: 1 of the Liga financial fair play, which will allow the club to spend the slightest euro which enters, while before a part of the income related to sales should be used to plug the holes in the accounts.

A midfielder could also be recruited, and according to Mundo DeportivoBarça is interested in Sandro Tonali. A player already coveted in the past with an offer that had been made when he played in Brescia.
The Newcastle midfielder has a profile and a style of play that appeals to the staff of FC Barcelona, who believes that it would be perfect for playing in front of the defense. Barça scout reports are unanimous: it would quite have its place in the Hansi Flick team. Only problem, and not the least, Newcastle had dropped 70 million euros to recruit it and will therefore not sell it easily. It will also be necessary to see what is happening with the future of Frenkie de Jong, which Hansi Flick loves, and who again seized the post of holder before the defense …
