The FC Barcelona, headed by his sportive director, Deco, spoke after the hard defeat of the Barcelona in Riad in the final of the Supercopa of Spain. First, the director culé congratulated to the Real Madrid when signalling that "it has done a spectacular party. We have not been able to stop them. Has players of quality, and besides, have not been able to neutralise them, especially in speed", signalled.

"It is necessary to follow and think in the Glass. There is not at all more than doing but go on", stood out a Deco that surely thought during the party that the culés need to improve his midfield what before in a moment in which the whites seem to have the best of the world in this appearance, surely beside the Manchester City. However, Deco explained that regarding the signings the situation is not simple of face to the current wintry market.

The Barça is not in conditions of fichar

"I think that the fair play does not touch him only to the Barça, is the reality of our football", sentenced in first instance the luso-Brazilian, signalling besides that "we do not have capacity for fichar. This is the reality", explained the sportive director of the Barça. Like this, seem to be except a twist of script in the next week, the culés will have to try have the best possible course with what already have available.

In fact, Xavi Hernández also 'wetted' in this subject, signalling of concrete way that "to day of today can not, the club can not incorporate to any, the situation is the one who have", explained the míster. Of this way, the Barça will have to trust Frenkie of Jong -and Gündogan- as the pivote of the team until next summer, having clear that Oriol Romeu has left to be an option for the XI of the Catalan technician.

Options for this 2024

Thinking in some entry that can change the situation of the club this same month of January, Aleix García seems to be the footballer that leads this list. The Spanish could be a player for the short and average term in this role, adding besides to names like Kimmich or Zubimendi for the summer, although both very complicated by his prices of exit, around 50 or 60 million euros each one.
