FC Barcelona continues to trust that it will continue adding reinforcements to its squad. Xavi Hernández's priority is the incorporation of a reinforcement for the midfield, but from the club they also insist on a right back

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona deshoja the margarita in the market of signings estival. The financial situation of the club follows in be the ideal and are many the problems with the Fair Play financial. To day of today, and waiting for the payment of the 60 million euros by the crowbars of the past summer, the Barcelona are not in capacity to inscribe in LaLiga to the players renewed (Ronald Araújo, Sergi Roberto, Marcos Alonso, Iñaki Crag...) Or the new signings ((Íñigo Martínez Ilkay Gündogan and Oriol Romeu). In spite of this, trust that all will solve prompt... And will have more margin to complete more incorporations.

In the dispatches of the club keep optimistic with repecto to the denouement of the window of transfers estival, but the true is that they have to give hastes to complete all the possible operations that, in principle, allow to register to the players of the current staff before the debut in LaLiga, the next 13 August. The limit is the day 31, but the intention is that Xavi Hernández can have all his changing room for the crash against the Getafe and, maybe, with two signings more: a new midfield player and a right side 'natural' for the position.

Why the Barça wants to two signings more?

In the last days, has come insisting in that the trainer egarense has asked that it do an extra effort to achieve the contracting of Bernardo Silva, to the one who sees like the complement ideal to reinforce the centre of the field. The leaders him 'answered' with the option of Joao Félix, that has 'offered' to the Barça, but finish refusing the alternative because Xavi does not find him lace in his team. It insists in the player of the Manchester City, whose traspaso would elevate to the 80 million euros.

It is the big dream of the trainer culé and in the club would have to do malabares to achieve it, but pretends exhaust all the options. Jorge Mendes, his agent, part like ally and will try to open the way, although from England have left clear that will not give to one of his big stars. On the other hand, and without a leaf of route so clear-cut, is the possible signing of a right side, that is request expresses of Deco. The names of Joao Cancel or Pablo Maffeo continue in the diary, but has not advanced with any of the two waiting for resolving the 'eternal' problems with the Fair Play.

The Barça depends on a sale 'fat'

As it informs 'Sportive World', the blaugrana are centred in completing a traspaso important as soon as possible. With the exits of Samuel Umtiti, after the rescission of his agreement, or the imminent goodbye to Nico González and Álex Hill is not sufficient to think in a new signing. The club has to close, yes or yes, these operations and insist in others like the ones of Clément Lenglet to the Tottenham and Franck Kessié, probably, to the Juventus. It is the first step.

However, the history does not finish there. From the City Condal are forced to 'undo' of a player that can generate sufficient extraordinary income, although they do not think in the exit of a 'star' if no of the players with which Xavi Hernández would not explain. The names of Raphinha, Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres, that have left clear that they want to follow, go back to be on the table... It could 'take out' the Barça, at least, 50 million euros by any of them? That would be the ideal solution, although with several 'peros'.

It does not be necessary to overlook that the signings of Raphinha and Ferran are not amortised and that the culés would have to sell him by a very elevated figure not to generate losses and that, in question, compute like a positive operation. In the case of Ansu formed in The Masia, would be much easier, but even Joan Laporta announced does some weeks that his sale was descartada this summer. It is an alley that seems not having exit and that would complicate the arrival of the two reinforcements that pretend in the sportive direction.
