FC Barcelona is scattered. The Camp Nou residents are progressing behind the scenes on several files related to the transfer window. In the direction of departures, they completed that of Franck Kessié in Saudi Arabia while dragging things out for Ousmane Dembélé, who had his medical examination yesterday at PSG. The Culés still hope to settle the sale of Clément Lenglet in order to replenish its coffers and recruit.
Barça continues its transfer window
The Blaugranas are also exploring the avenues leading to Neymar (PSG) and João Félix (Atlético de Madrid). But Xavi doesn’t want either. However, his bosses are pushing behind the scenes because they want a big name to attract supporters and sponsors. For the right-back position, João Cancelo is hoped for. But if it ever happens, it would be in the form of a loan. But some Catalan media assure that it is Pablo Maffeo who will be recruited.
Barça therefore continues its transfer window when it has not yet resolved its priority problem, namely registering new players who have already arrived. This week, Rafa Yuste, vice-president of the club, tried to calm everyone down by indicating that the recruits would be available on Sunday against Getafe. But that’s still not the case this Friday explains brand. The Iberian publication explains that the lever of 60 million euros which was to be activated on Wednesday is still not activated.
But his recruits are still not registered
And it couldn’t be activated in time. This, despite the sales of Kessié and Dembélé. brand assures that Barca need more money and talks about “extreme situation”. Indeed, Xavi only has eleven players available today. On the official list given to La Liga, there are twelve names since Dembouz was registered. But that was before he left for Paris. Xavi can only count on Ter Stegen, Christensen, Koundé, Eric, Gavi, Ferran, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Lewandowski, Ansu Fati and Raphinha.
On the other hand, no trace of the young people, who will nevertheless have a card to play, and of the players who extended last year, that is to say Sergi Roberto, Ronald Araujo and Iñaki Peña. Same thing for loan income elements like Dest, Abde and Lenglet explains the Spanish daily. And it’s still the same for summer recruits Iñigo Martínez, Ilkay Gündogan and Oriol Romeu. Some of them, like Gündogan, have a clause which allows them to terminate their contract if ever they cannot be registered. But Barca, who can register players minutes before the first match, are hopeful. If it’s not settled on Sunday, Xavi will only be able to count on eleven players.
