Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona is still in a position complicated of face to the increasingly near market of winter. The fault of margin salarial and the financial restrictions that imposes LaLiga limit the possibility of signings unless there are unexpected exits, a perspective that does not seem to concretise in this moment, by what Xavi Hernández seems that it will not be able to solve his need in the role of pivote.

In fact, the Catalan club has communicated to the Barcelona technical body that the plan during the month of January will have to base in the available resources inside the current staff, as it has informed this Wednesday 'Sport'. And it is that although it is true that sportive area of the Barça coincides with Xavi in the need to make some improvements in the team, mainly in the position of mediocentro, the margin of manoeuvre is extremely limited.

The Barça already seems to have done his duties of market by this season

It is thus that the directive of the Catalan club considers that the staff already has been reinforced with the arrival of several players of high level during the last year, as they have been Ilkay Gündogan, Cancel or Joao Félix, by what with the majority of the properly covered positions does not seem that they want to force the signing of a mediocampista defensive. This situation presents before the doubts that follows generating the level of Oriol Romeu, the name chosen by Xavi inside some options 'low cost' that it could face the Barcelona entity the past summer.

The Barça, although it follows attentive to the market, finds with a limit salarial that makes impossible the registration of new footballers, unless it produce a change in the too important rule or arrive unexpected income through commercial agreements or sales of players. It is worthwhile to remember besides that the culés still follow waiting for ingresar the 40 million euros of the 'German crowbar'.

Of Jong possibly will have to be the 'signing'

It is thus that with the hope that the injuries are less frequent in what it subtracts of the season, Xavi will have to have the options that already possesses in the team to carry out rotations in the decisive stretch of the season, especially with the return of Frenkie of Jong of the infirmary this same month of November. The Dutch can be the ideal option to assume the main role of mediocentro, giving like this more freedom to Gündogan and allowing a greater quantity of minutes between Gavi, Pedri and Fermín.
