Sergiño Dest could leave Barça without leaving a penny in the club's coffers. The American's contract with the club expires in 2025 and PSV Eindhoven does not intend to pay a transfer for the player this summer

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The future of Sergiño Dest in the City Condal is one of the open fronts of the FC Barcelona for this mercano of signings. The grave injury of ligaments crossed suffered by the player in the final stretch of the past season, which will have it in the 'dry dam' until January 'trastocó' the plans around the destination of the side. In principle, the PSV Eindhoven, team in which it was yielded, pretended to execute the option of purchase by 10 millions that there was pactado with the entity blaugrana.

However, after the physical setback of the footballer, the Dutch communicated him to the Catalan club that would not activate the clause of the player, although no descartaban remain with his index card. Now, as 'Mark', the 'ranchers' have taken the decision of not crediting at all by his traspaso. In Ámsterdam do not want to risk to make invest any figure by a player whose state of form after the injury is an incógnita.

This determination was a 'stick' for the Barça, that trusted to take out 'cut' by a footballer that does not explain for the club, although also they expected the posture of the Dutch after the injury of Dest. These millions were keys for the entity in front of the problems with the 'fair play' financial, by what now look for a solution between the three parts. The PSV is still thinking that remain with the side is a good decision while they do not pay by his traspaso, by what it would be necessary to define the conditions of his signing. To Sergiño remains him a year of agreement with the Barcelona and has an amortización pending of 4,2 million euros of the transfer that paid the institution to the Ajax in 2020

The alternatives of the Barça

Of this way, in Can Barça handle two stages. The first of them is that Dest was still in Eindhoven recovering of the injury and both clubs deliver the payment of the wage of the footballer. In June of 2025 the American would remain free and, of agreement to the evolution of his injury, could sign an agreement with the PSV. The problem of this option is that the culés would have to assume the 4,2 million the amortización, although they would save the index card of the player.

On the other hand, in the City Condal also could study the option to terminate the agreement of the of Almere, an alternative that would allow him even remain with a percentage of a future sale. Of this form, the culés would renounce entirely to the wage of the footballer this same summer and could recover the amortización or part of her in the next years.
