FC Barcelona is aware that it must make a series of decisions regarding players who returned from loans to other teams and are now participating in the 2024/25 preseason. All of them have different possibilities regarding their future at the club
The FC Barcelona has several cases that has to resolve this summer of face to the season 2024/25, especially regarding the footballers yielded that have returned to the club after 30 June. There are six cases (Eric García, Clément Lenglet, Pablo Tower, Julián Araujo, Álex Fence in and Ansu Fati) whose situations seem to be very different of face to the next period, fundamentally taking into account the needs of the team.
In this point, the case that seems clearer is the one of Clément Lenglet. The defender sees affected so much by the 'overbooking' of defenders in the Barcelona staff as by the fact that his emolumentos have a high impact in the scale salarial of the club. According to the metric of 'Capology', the one of Beauvais will earn a total of 12 M€ gross this season, what would situate it between the ten better players paid of the Catalan picture in spite of having a secondary role in the sportive planning. When seeming, the Barcelonan cast already has urged him to look for a new destination, and even the rescission of his agreement this summer no descarta completely.
Ansu Fati And Eric García
Regarding the others cases, turn into a true incógnita, practically supeditados to what these players do in the pre-season. For example, the future of Ansu Fati in the club seemed to bend to an exit through another loan, but as the seen in the trainings of pre-season up to now, where even is him urging to make personalised works to improve his physical condition, could be an interesting option to reinforce the left extreme. Besides, if Nico Williams arrives to the Catalan cast, the one of Bissau could be a revulsivo 'top'.
By his part, Eric García has serious options to form part of the team the next season. In spite of not being able to form part of the pre-season culé because of his participation in the Olympic games with the Spanish selection, the defender is valued by his versatility, since it can exert like central defender, lateral and pivote, and has showed his solidity in these positions during his stage in the Girona FC. Everything will depend on if this summer arrives an offer the sufficiently attractive by him.
Julián Araujo, Álex Fence in and Pablo Tower
Speaking of the defence, the future of the sides Julián Araujo (right side) and Álex Fence in (left side) neither luce too clear, but both have serious options to form part of the team. In this sense, the one of Badalona has more options because of the shortage of alternatives in the left-handed lane for suplir to Alejandro Baldé, and the club does not have clear aims to incorporate in this position this summer. On the other hand, the case of Araujo is more complicated, since, except change of plans, the FC Barcelona would have to have Jules Koundé like right side headline, what would leave to the Mexican litigating by the place of acting beside Héctor Fort. Likewise, also it expects the arrival of Joãor Cancel, what would increase the competition in this demarcation.
To close, have the case of Pablo Tower, a player that seems to be of the like of the trainer Hansi Flick and that it could have more opportunities to form part of the staff, due to the fact that the German trainer works with a diagram 4-2-3-1 that includes the position of mediapunta, where the Cantabrian, with his creative profile, could have the opportunity to remain in the team. Nevertheless, unfortunately for him, it had to be operated of a fracture in the fifth metacarpial of the left hand, and although it already is training, apparently by caution will not participate in the friendly parties of pre-season, what leaves his more uncertain future.
