This is how it's going to be FC Barcelona's transfers in January

The market of wintry signings is about to to begin and already the teams are preparing to sell and buy players with reason to reinforce his respective staff. It will be a window of special transfer, as it went it in summer, by the difficult economic situation that live the clubs in the middle of the pandemia of the coronavirus, in which they have seen reduced his income by the closing of the stadiums, the television rights and sponsorships.

As in the summer, will not have traspasos millionaires and, by the moment, expects that the signings are 'low cost'. Whereas in the past window of transfer the costliest was Kai Havertz, of the Bayer Leverkusen to Chelsea by 80 million euros, in January the situation will be very different and the clubs, in all Europe, will opt by the cessions and the most economic signings.

However, in spite of the critical moment, will have opportunities of gold to negotiate the traspaso of some players. In the specific case of the FC Barcelona, the aims of the club are very clear: fichar to Eric García and Memphis Depay, but for this, some footballers have to abandon the Camp Nou, to do box and free the mass salarial. The Barça, beside all the teams in Spain, will have from 4 January until 1 February to go out to the market of signings.

The picture culé part with disadvantage regarding other big clubs, like the Real Madrid or the Athletic , due to the fact that it finds in the middle of the presidential elections, that will be just eight days before the end of the market of transfers. In paper, the Barça will not be able to fichar until the charge that left Josep María Bartomeu was busy, but the technical secretary blaugrana, Ramón Plans, and Ronald Koeman already work in the sales (or cessions) of players with which the trainer does not explain and, to his time, lyou plans to achieve the signatures of García and Depay.

In the 'low' of the team are the footballers that do not go in in the approach of the Dutch technician. Riqui Puig, Carles Aleñá, Samuel Umtiti or Junior Firpo are those that, in this moment, would be in the ramp of exit of the Camp Nou. Koeman Had aimed that "each player has the decision of if it wants to or no (go out), but councils give to a player that have fewer minutes and that do not go to explain a lot" and everything aims to that these councils have given them to him to the four above-mentioned.

In this sense, the Barça will not have it so easy to undo of his players. In the case of Aleñá or Puig will be simpler, because both have offers and, if they are willing, the club will give them gone out without any problem. By the contrary, Umtiti and Firpo will be a big headache for the culés. Any has cuajado a good start of season and by the moment in Can Barça have not received offers by them. Regarding the central French, in specific, in the summer the Barcelona tried to sell him, but the doubts regarding his physical state braked to his beaux.

The Barça will go back to insist by García and Depay

Once again, the FC Barcelona will look for to negotiate the arrival of Eric García and Memphis Depay. Both finish his agreements with his clubs in June and, in theory, his price in the market will be much lower of what went in the summer. Of the Dutch forward, boasts that his cost will be of five million euros, probably, because the Olympique Lyon, in an economic situation very difficult, will look for ingresar some figure by the player, so that it do not leave free when it finish his agreement. Like this then , if the Barça frees the mass salarial and no advances him another team, Depay would arrive to the Camp Nou.

With Eric García the situation is a bit more complicated. Although the central Catalan would want to abandon the Etihad Stadium, his team resists . With an economic situation much more positive that the rest of the teams, the Manchester City will not reduce the price of the defender and, instead, will insist in renewing his agreement and like this move it away of the Barça, his main beau.
