As sporting director Deco and head coach Hansi Flick assess long-term roster balance, club officials are exploring profiles that fit both financial parameters and tactical requirements. The identification of domestic talent aligns with a broader strategy to maintain a strong core of national players within the Camp Nou squad, keeping pace with traditional squad-building metrics utilized by La Liga clubs.
