He's an interesting player for sure.
He's on loan at Osasuna until 2021 though, and he actually isn't non-EU as he's been playing for different teams in Spain since 2016.

He has announced a few days ago he won't stay at Osasuna next season. Watford will probably look to sell him this time. AM is after him. I wouldn't mind him here but we'll probably wait too long trying to include Firpo in the Lautaro deal.

If Watford relegate today then Estupinan becomes an even more feasible signing.
Has he been any better this season at Osasuna than Firpo at Betis though? If we are getting a similar level then it would just be a case of buying him for less than the sale of Firpo and balancing the books- yet again. In that scenario could we just trust in Akieme until winter market at worst?
Alot to keep on our agenda as if Barcelona B promote he can stay match fit in Segunda.

He's better defensively and he has more experience playing in a 4-man defense (Firpo was mainly used as a LWB with 3 at the back at Betis). He's not the greatest technically but quite solid offensively anyway.
Arsenal will unfortunately never be able to afford him.

Doesn't matter. This board is always up for some shady deals.

Barca will NOT sign any more players until they can sell a footballer. Barca's economy does not allow for any investment if no money goes into the coffers. The technical secretary has direct orders from President Bartomeu and the economic area per @EsportsRAC1

What do you mean? We?ve already signed an electric winger ready to debut for us: Ousmane Dembele.

Not necessarily a bad thing, and the perfect ammunition for oppositions electoral campaign. That this board run us so poorly financially that we could not enhance the sporting project.
Well, I say all of this, when in the end it is probably Barto's 4D chess to get Lautaro Martinez for 101m rather than 111m.

It's probably tactics too. Barto or Barca management always said conservative number when it came to summer transfer budget and then overspent it.
