The club's financial problems forced the sports management to look for cheap offers
Barcelona are looking for bargains in the market:
Messi, Gundogan...
If Barcelona want to compete in Europe again, they need to take another leap in the quality of their squad. Everyone in the club knows that. Xavi Hernandez has made it clear more than once this season that it's not enough, although a certain level of competition has begun to emerge. They are also aware in the office where they know what is needed and how to get it. In the past, Barcelona's sporting leadership has shown they are capable of executing top-level signings at competitive prices. Thanks to the current economic situation, the Catalan club were finally able to sign the contract without raising the price. Recent experiences like that of Philippe Coutinho are still fresh in Barcelona's memory.
With current economic problems and wage bills, Jordi Cruyff and Mateu Alemany had to use their expertise and imagination to tackle Xavi's demands on his team. Last season, they were able to bring in players with freedom under their arms. The best performer so far has been Andreas Christensen, but Franck Kessie, Marcos Alonso and Hector Bellerin have also arrived.
Looking ahead to next season, the club is once again scanning the market for bargains - players who can secure guaranteed positions and, if possible, come without the club having to pay a transfer fee. for them. It's the most practical way to complete the group when they have limited wiggle space with the controller. These are some of the most coveted players on the market that will be free at the end of June.
Lionel Messi
It is equally important to be clear. The Argentine player terminated his contract with Paris Saint-Germain. So far, he has not wanted to extend, which feeds the hopes of Barcelona supporters. Without the transfer fee, it all boils down to how the Catalan side can cover his wages. And that's assuming Messi returns to Barcelona paying much less than he did in the last leg. Otherwise, it is not possible. Marcus Thuram
Another name that has been linked to Barcelona before. He will end his contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach this summer. There are other teams interested in the France international, such as Inter, but everything indicates that Barcelona could have finished the job a few months ago. Alemany and Cruyff are known to be very excited about this kind of deal.
Evan Ndicka
Another French defender has Europe. Neighboring countries are the endless source of players for this profile. At the age of 23, he has yet to renew his contract with Eintracht Frankfurt. Barcelona are keeping a close eye on him, but there are others too.
Ilkay Gundogan
A longtime Barcelona fan, he will end his contract with Manchester City this summer. He's 32 years old, but that means less competition to sign him. The idea is that, for midfield, only players who truly represent a significant leap in quality will arrive. He is one.
Alexandre Grimaldo
Returning academy products to the club is an option. The 27-year-old has ended his contract with Benfica and is an interesting way to strengthen the left-back position. Especially if the club manage to complete the departure of Jordi Alba, even if the L'Hospitalet player has more than once stated that his desire is to complete the contract. Grimaldo wants to take a leap in his career and Barcelona is the best possible chance.
