Pini Zahavi held a meeting with Joan Laporta and Deco on Tuesday in Barcelona. The Israeli agent, representative of Robert Lewandowski, had dinner with the Barça president to discuss, among other matters, the possible signing of a midfielder
The directive of the FC Barcelona gathered the Tuesday with the Israeli agent Pini Zahavi to argue subjects strictly related with the wintry market. The representative of Robert Lewandowski conversed to first hour with Deco and, later, dined with Joan Laporta in a known restaurant of the City Condal, a 'summit' in which, almost with security, tackled the possibility of fichar to a mediocentro in January.
And it is that the own Laporta advanced the Monday that the directive will do the possible by fichar to an able footballer to cover the drop of Gavi, although the operation will depend on several pending movements that free sufficient margin salarial. In principle, the Barça would obtain sufficient money to go to by an option 'low cost' if ingresa the 40 million euros that owes the bottom investor Líbero of the sale of Barça Vision, a money that the club expected to receive before 15 December.
The signing of a mediocentro, the priority of the 'summit'
In this sense, Deco, Laporta and Zahavi evaluated alternative 'low cost' for the wintry market regarding pivote refers . The club has insisted from beginnings of year in Joshua Kimmich, but the German footballer descartó go out of the Bayern Munich in summer and the last rumours on his future aim to the interest of the player of 28 years in playing in the Premier League the next season.
This, added to the financial problems of the Barça, do to foresee the descarte of the of Rottweil even before opening the wintry market. The Barça would look for to negotiate the cession of a pivote until final of season, without option of compulsory purchase, something that does not fit neither in the plans of Kimmich neither much less in the ones of a Bayern that insists in trying fichar to Ronald Araújo in 2024.
The 'case Lewandowski' does not admit debate in the Barça
Consulted by the future of Lewandowski in the Barça, Pini Zahavi launched a fast answer: "Of course", it answered to if the Pole will remain in the Barcelona club in the short term. Like this the things, the directive seems to have taken advantage of the 'summit' to resolve any debate on the possible exit of the '9' in 2024. Robert will keep on being important for the club, so much for the rest of the present season as for the 2024/25, further of the impact that can have Vitor Roque in the second stretch of the 23/24.
