After watching how Yusuf Demir started the season, Barcelona felt they had found a jewel, but the Rapid Vienna forward will not play for the Catalan club again.
The loan deal between the two sides had a clause stating that if Demir played 10 games for Los Cules, the Spanish club would be compelled to purchase him for ten million euros.
The Blaugrana do not desire to activate this option due to the club's financial position, as they do not consider Demir to be a necessary expense.
Demir has already appeared in nine games in both LaLiga Santander and the Champions League, and the club cannot afford to select him again; if he does, they will be legally compelled to pay for him. Despite the fact that Barcelona believes Demir has promise, he has struggled to make an impact since the start of the season, and his salary would be a concern if he were to be added to the club's wage bill.
As a result, the footballer was advised to look for a new club, especially since he had demonstrated that he was too good to continue with Rapid Vienna.
Demir was the first player to depart Barcelona during the January clearout, with at least four others expected to follow him out the exit door.
As the team looks to create way for Ferran Torres, who will arrive from Manchester City, moves for Samuel Umtiti, Coutinho, Sergino Dest, and Luuk de Jong are all being considered.
