Much of the talk surrounding Barcelona this summer is focused on potential new arrivals. However, there are many players on the team who are concerned about their positions.
In his final post-match press conference of the season, manager Xavi Hernandez confirmed that several players had been told they could leave the club. Despite the fact that pre-season begins on Monday, July 4th, there has been little movement out the exit door.
Oscar Mingueza, Riqui Puig, Samuel Umtiti, and Martin Braithwaite make up the group in question. According to Mundo Deportivo, Xavi and the club have informed those players that they are not required to attend training. They may also not be called up for Barcelona's tour of the United States later in July.
Braithwaite's case is a little different in that he is not expected to rejoin the team until later in the month due to international commitments in early June.
It's a stark reminder that, as much as Barcelona struggles to bring in players, reshaping the squad requires finding exits for several players. This is most likely the latest step in convincing the players in question that a better future awaits them away from Camp Nou. Finding these destinations at an affordable price, as seen with Philippe Coutinho, is far from easy.
