The management of FC Barcelona will want to forget this terrible week as soon as possible. Indeed, in recent days, the reigning Spanish champion club has received several bad news. First, the Nico Williams file, which extended at Athletic to everyone's surprise, when everyone seemed convinced that he was going to join Catalonia quickly. A big failure for the management of FC Barcelona who, a few hours later, learned that she would have to pay a fine of 15 million euros to the UEFA for non-compliance with the rules of financial fair play.
Anyway, the club finds itself a little empty -handed after the Williams affair and must quickly turn to a Plan B. The Catalan press explained in recent hours that the old plan A, Luis Diaz (Liverpool), was precisely the priority, with Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) as the most credible alternative behind the Colombian.
Two complicated tracks
Except that, as indicated by several media as ASit's very complicated. Luis Diaz is a player who will potentially be much more expensive than Williams, making his arrival and his recording in a complicated liga, even if the return to the rule of 1: 1 of the financial fair play will give more margin to the Catalans in the event of sales of players. Worse, the tragic death of Diogo Jota paralyzed the transfer transfer window, and it is less and less likely that the Colombian is leaving, for sporting but also emotional reasons. Deco plans to give a few days of respite to the English club before going back to the attack.
As for the English striker, this is a cheaper operation that could complete a loan with option to buy, but the Mancunian is not necessarily unanimous in Barcelona. Especially since the club's goal is to enlist a big player capable of being efficient immediately, and Rashford, who rather seeks to revive after complicated years, does not necessarily correspond to this profile. It is therefore very likely that new names are coming out in the coming days …
