Reinforced by the arrivals of Marcus Rashford, Joan Garcia, and Rony Bardghji, Barça had so far been able to keep the framework that had made its good weather last season. On the departure side, the Catalan club only separated from second knives, or unwanted elements. From this perspective, Pau Victor joined Braga for 12 million euros, when Alex Vale has signed up with Côme for 6 million and that Ansu Fati rallied Monaco on loan.
Barça also recovered 5 million euros on the sale of Pablo Torre in Mallorca, while the termination of the Clément Lenglet contract allowed it to save 20 million euros, sum corresponding to the three years of contract remaining in French. If departures are still hoped for by Barça supporters, like that of Oriol Romeu, the new bomb released by the Spanish press this Thursday evening should not fill them with joy.
Inigo Martinez will bounce back to Al-Nassr
After MarcaÍñigo Martínez is indeed very close to leaving the Catalan club. Arrived last summer after six years spent in Bilbao, the 34 -year -old defender asserted himself as one of the real leaders of Hansi Flick. The German has made it an untouchable holder, and in recent weeks, the idea of making him a captain had germinated in the mind of German, as the Catalan press reported.
But a priori, Martinez will not have the opportunity to put on the armband this season. Marca Indicates that discussions are currently taking place between the player and Barça, which will facilitate its release. According to El Chiringuitothe player will even join Cristiano Ronaldo in Al-Nassr for 8 million euros. With this departure, Hansi Flick will now have to count on Eric Garcia, Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen and Pau Cubarsi as the central defender. A transfer which should certainly be experienced as a heartbreaker among Catalan supporters, very attached to the Spanish international.
