Came across this on goal:
"Barca disregarded Stoichkov's Davies reccomendation
Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu turned down Hristo Stoichkov's recommendation of Alphonso Davies, reports Univision.
The former striker told Bartomeu about Davies months before Bayern Munich made the move to sign the former Vancouver Whitecaps star.
However, the Barca president said that he was not interested because Davies was from Canada."
Very likely to be true.
Shows what is the problem when you have a person who does not have a clue about footbal running the club and taking decisions that should have never been his responsibility to take

It is not true.
Barca tried to sign Davies almost two years before he signed for Bayern.
Clearly no issue with him being Canadian.

Not really due more potential dont think.
Signed him for around 500k and tried to sign Davies for around 7m.
Bayern jumped ahead when offered better programme in first team.
There you have it. The usual case of us not willing to pay up like Kubo, Asensio before. Yet don't mind putting money into unknown Brazilians.
EDIT
We signed Ballou Tabla a year before Bayern signed Alphonso. So the timelines coincide with us scouting talents in the region for the B team and not closing Alphonso for whatever reason.

On Monday there will be a board meeting where "decisions will be made". Looks like they won't resign and will call for elections on March.

They will sack Abidal as a scapegoat. No radical changes. Barto and the board must be the most delusional professionals to ever work in the football industry.
We can't rebuild the team without getting rid of the seniors. Suarez, Busquets, Alba, Raki, Vidal, Pique, all should leave in the next few weeks.
Try to cut losses and sell Griezmann and maybe Dembele.
Buy 3-4 inexpensive talented young players, buy another in January transfer window.
Bayern started to rebuild the team after getting rid of the seniors' last summer.
It is said that you learn a lot about managing different people and guiding them from being a shepherd
