Present in Dallas, where he attended the 2026 World Cup, the president of FC Barcelona, ​​Joan Laporta, spoke on several hot issues of the transfer window. The Catalan leader notably sent a clear message to Atlético de Madrid concerning the case of Julián Álvarez, Barça’s priority offensive target, while specifying that the Blaugrana club would not wait indefinitely for a response.

“Yes, I said it was a fixed-term offer. Obviously, we are not going to let this happen. We will impose our pace. This offer is not unlimited, and we will announce its validity period when the time comes. We did it with the aim of recruiting a player who would please the coach and the sporting director. The offer is of a very significant amount, but it will not be unlimited. The last time we spoke to Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, I was very clear”. Comments relayed by the Spanish daily A.S.who confirm that Barcelona remains determined to recruit the Argentine striker, while refusing to indefinitely extend negotiations with the Colchoneros.
