Barça defends that the negotiations are not 100% broken, although it admits that the meeting ended far from an agreement. The player’s agent knows that a succulent commission would be taken away if Dembélé did not renew and signed in the summer for any other team without paying a transfer to Barça. The voices of the club who have not yet thrown in the towel say that the refusal to renew hides a negotiation strategy. In contrast, other important figures in decision-making argue that if no agreement is reached between the two parties, new scenarios will open up in this winter market regarding Dembélé’s future. They don’t want to see how the Frenchman, for whom more than 100 million transfers were paid in the summer of 2017 – and who has one of the highest records in the squad – leaves the club without leaving any compensation in the coffers.
In this sense, accredited sources of the entity admit to ARA that buyers will be sought to lose sight of the Norman player in the short term if he remains determined not to renew. The problem is that the player and his agent do not want to give up the emoluments they have agreed until June 30, nor the signing bonus. “They want everything,” they summarize from the Camp Nou, where ways are explored to compensate for this will with the collaboration of the destination club, charge a small transfer and even get a player in exchange. It is also not ruled out offering the letter of release.
In short: it’s worth almost everything before enduring with the Mosquito in the locker room without renewing and charging up to the last euro of your contract. Because extending the Frenchman’s bond is a decisive decision not only in sports, but also in economics, as it would allow him to earn a salary margin by deferring part of his salary from the current season in more years, as well as space the amortization of the cost. of his signing. They are two crucial elements in gaining oxygen in the fair play financial and to be able to register new footballers, such as the recently announced Ferran Torres.
Morata, another option for the front
On the other hand, according to the newspaper As This same Thursday, Barça added another candidate to strengthen the front line. It’s Álvaro Morata, a striker who currently plays for Juventus under a two-year loan deal with Atletico Madrid. The operation would be resolved with a transfer to the winter market with a purchase of 40 million euros forced in the summer, which is the amount that the Italian club would stop paying Atletico to keep the Madrid owner . A figure that coincides with the one that the mattress entity has to pay this summer to Barça for Griezmann, who is currently on loan to Wanda Metropolitano. In this sense, the winter market has not yet officially started. The month of January at the Camp Nou will be entertaining.
