At FCBN we review the upcoming operations of FC Barcelona in the summer transfer window. The Catalans work tirelessly to strengthen Xavi Hernández's squad, but they also have the obligation to free up space in the dressing room with sales or transfers

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona has given beginning to his market of signings estival, that aims to be very moved and with a big number of operations depending on what happen with the Fair Play financial. The club, after receiving green light of LaLiga to the plan of economic feasibility, is slope to free mass salarial to have 'eases' to the hour to inscribe players. They trust that, in brief, will be able to solve all the problems for, in principle, register to the players that renewed his respective agreements.

The Barcelona sportive direction is forced to be followed all the steps and 'promises' that did in the plan of feasibility, by what in the next days will try apurar the operation gone out, with special attention to the players that return of his cessions. Later, they will work in announcing the signings crash for the staff of Xavi Hernández -that will depend on the sales- and, if it remains time and margin salarial, will concretise different renewals in the staff of the first team.

To continuation, in FCBN review all the operations that the blaugrana will try to carry out in the next months to prepare the staff that will struggle by all the titles in the season 2023-2024:

Operation Gone out: The priority of the Barça

As it comes informing from does some weeks, the Barça will be of hands tied until it achieve to undo of several chromiums with which does not explain Xavi. The names of the players yielded are the first in the list: Samuel Umtiti, Clément Lenglet, Álex Hill, Sergiño Dest, Nico González and Ez Abde, with asterisk, are the first that aim to go out, but it will be necessary to be very attentive to what can happen with the 'sentenced' of the staff: Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, Pablo Tower, Eric García, or Franck Kessié that would have done to change to resemble the sportive direction culé.

Beginning with Samuel Umtiti, is negotiating his traspaso to the Olympique of Lyon, but is slope of an agreement salarial with the player. The club pretends to give any type of eases and, although the aim is to do box with his sale, no descarta that they can offer him the letter of freedom. The forecast is that it concretise before 30 June, the same that a Lenglet that could finish 'returning' permanently to the Tottenham, although the sale is far to concretise . The intention is that it can advance prompt and that his exit report profits for this exercise.

Regarding Nico, Hill and Dest there is not so much optimism, because there are not conversations under way. The club tries to look for them new teams, but the situation of the three is very slope up after signing a grey season in Valencia, Elche and AC Milan respectively. The only asterisk with the yielded is Ez Abde, the one who could finish remaining in case that no fiche to a reinforcement for the attack.

Signalled in the staff of the Barça

It will be necessary to be attentive, on the other hand, to the descenlace of the 'signalled' in the team. With Ansu Fati, although his surroundings has declared that it will remain to fulfil his agreement, the sportive direction continue looking for him a destination where can have regularity and recover his confidence, place Xavi is not able to guarantee him a lot of minutes in the course that comes. It is a similar case to the of Ferran Torres, but his exit is complicated because it still remains for amortising around 40 million euros of his signing from the Manchester City in 2021.

Of the same way, in the ramp of exit is Pablo Tower, to the that will look for him a cession so that it add continuity and do not brake his development like footballer. The competition in the centre of the field will be maximum and in the club understand that the most favourable is that it leave a year, whereas with Eric García will listen offers (if they arrive). The ex of the Manchester City did not have a good performance in this last course and, if it can do box with him, the blaugrana will exhaust his options.

Finally, with Franck Kessié there is a lot of uncertainty. Although until it does at all it was one of the players that the Barça pretended to sell to achieve a sale with plusvalías, the last informations suggest that his situation has given a twist of 180 degrees. Deco, new sportive director, is loved with his profile and understands that it can be important in the 2023-24. Already it has descartado for the operation that would include to Marcelo Brozovic, by what the Catalans will have to find a new road to convince to the Inter.

Operation reinforce: The 'cracks' that wants the Barça

In another section are the possible reinforcements for Xavi Hernández. Already it has concretised the signing of İlkay Gündoğan, the one who has accessed to form part of the club by the next two seasons (fixed) more an optional year. Mateu Alemany Closed the operation during the last week, in Munich, with conditions 'of luxury' for the club. It will access to earn a wage of ten gross millions to the year (some five 'kilos' net) and will have a clause of 500M.

With the incorporation of the Teutonic, the Barça injects a lot of quality to the centre of the field and will happen to work in the last fringes of the incorporation of Iñigo Martínez, the one who also will land in the City Condal like free agent after finishing his bond with the Athletic Club. It will reinforce to the defence until the summer of 2025 and is slope, only, of the official communiqué confirming his incorporation.

In a stair underneath is the signing of Vitor Roque. It has attained an agreement with the Club Athletico Paranaense for the incorporation of the Brazilian forward by the next five seasons. Fault that firm the agreement for the traspaso, valued in 35 million euros more other ten in function of variables. The big problem is that it still does not know when will form part of the staff, because it will depend on when there is margin to inscribe it: in July or January.

In the research of a replacement for Busquets

In the same section of the signings, is the imperial need to achieve to a player that can serve of relief for Sergio Busquets in the position of pivote. The main options are Joshua Kimmich and Martín Zubimendi, but are very complicated. The Real Sociedad and Bayern of Munich are not by the work to give off of his key players and, in such a case, would cost around 60 'kilos', an inaccessible price for the club.

It is thus that, right now, are attentive to the possibilities 'low cost'. Marcelo Brozovic is in the diary, especially after the important that went in the Champions League with the Inter, and trust that it will refuse the millionaire offer that have done him from Saudi Arabia. It is in negotiations to add to the To the-Nssr, where is Cristiano Ronaldo, but still there is not at all concretised. If it does not achieve 'tie' to the Croatian, handle the names of Guido Rodríguez or Dani Parejo, after descartaran to Sofyan Amrabat.

The right side, another obligation for the Barça

As long as it have margin salarial sufficient, will try the incorporation of a right side, put at present there is not a natural player for the position. They have it to him 'rotado' between Sergi Roberto, Jules Koundé and Ronald Araújo, by what the forecast is that it can arrive a footballer that can do charge of the place. In the diary are the names of Joao Cancel and Iván Fresneda, but will depend of the Fair Play.

In the case of the Portuguese player, the Barça continues being the best positioned to do with his services, but there are not negotiations under way. It depends of the price that finish him putting the Manchester City, whereas with the player of the Real Valladolid have gathered the representatives of the sportive direction with his agents to transmit the interest, although without moving index card. They have left clear that will not give hastes, but keep it like an alternative.

Operation renewal: The Barça wants to 'tie' to his cracks

Finally, in the section of renewals the Barça will try to advance, but -as always- will depend on the solutions that find on the way with the limit salarial. The priority is that it announce the extension of the agreement of Alejandro Balde, with the one who is all smart so that firm until the 2027. It is one of the big promises that have been born in The Masia and the dream is that adueñe of the left side by the greater possible time. Tie it is a need.

Also it is the case of an Ousmane Dembélé whose agreement wins in the 2024 and this summer could leave by only 50 million euros. The club does not want to lose to one of his greater active and will try to concretise a renewal until 2026. Already they have produced the first contacts and the player has left clear, at all times, that does not want to move of the City Condal.
