The Blaugrana club opens several negotiation channels to incorporate a footballer in extemis
By not registering the new contracts of Gavi, Araujo, Balde or Iñaki Peña, a loan could arrive
Barça is already probing several market options given the certainty that it will be able to have a minimum salary margin to incorporate a footballer. There are several routes open at the moment and the sports area is working on the possibility of incorporating either a winger or a right-back. It must be a transfer and with a reduced cost, so they are trying to speed up opportunities. Today there will be one last summit with Xavi Hernández to decide and nothing is ruled out.
The initial idea was to incorporate a winger, but the chips of some players who are on the market to go on loan exceed what Barça can pay. You do not want to bring any patch but you will choose either by betting or by a proven footballer. But the chosen one will have to accept the economic conditions that Barça will be able to offer, so they should make a significant effort to sign. This situation already occurred in the last winter market with Aubameyang, who ended up terminating with Arsenal and accepted a minimum salary at the Camp Nou to fulfill his desire to dress as a blaugrana.
At the moment, the sports management is trying to specify a range of options for both the position of winger and offensive winger and, finally, Xavi Hernández should make the final decision. What is tried is to have advanced and easy to close operations because time is short and there will be no option to negotiate widely. The signing, if it ends up taking place, would be independent of the departure or not of Bellerín, who is very close to Sporting Lisbon.
One of these loan options could be that of the Frenchman Pavard, who could leave Bayern earlier than expected. Bayern is closing the transfer with purchase option of Joao Cancelo and is going to find a way out for the French international. Pavard, yes, should give up part of his salary to be able to enter within the Blaugrana salary limit and Bayern will not make many objections to his departure. Relations between the two clubs are not going through their best moment, but the winger has a conflict with his coach and the best thing for all parties is to find a way out.
Xavi’s initial idea was to incorporate a winger due to the departure from Memphis and Dembélé’s injury. In this case, the list is very short and only three options would be worked on at most. Everything is very open, but at Barça they believe that there will be time to sign. And you can register.
