I think if he leaves, it will be loan, hence Betis is also mentioned. Gavi came back from ACL last year and barely made an impact and he had far more experience with the first team. I could see the club thinking about Bernal developing for a year in another setting. Highly unlikely, though

This is the harsh truth. But it is just simpler for fans to say "there is no talents" instead of analyzing it. I don't blame them though, it is an entertaining industry and you don't need deep understanding for it, "you don't see players who are entertaining anymore = talents have declined" is...

Didn't Atletico chase him all of last summer?

Wasn't he expiring contract?

I read 20M is the full package

You are correct in that regard Roger? PS:Romano is now reporting it, but quoting the Pol guy

I was more confused by why he would come back and why would Dreams FC agreed on that. For us I can get it

Not sure about this being top 3 worse situations, Barca had like 30 years with 2 league titles during the 60's, 70's and 80's, never mind how the club had it during the Spanish civil war or during Franco's time. Not taking anything from Laporta, but this club had it rough tbh. There is a...

Ekitike has a lot of similarities with Darwin Nunez. Great physically and in almost everything but bad finisher and lacks goal scoring record. They are banking on him turning the page and taking the next step like how Isak has done, which is very possible. High risk high reward deal tbh, but...

He previously had offers from biggest clubs in Africa, like Zamalek and Pyramids in Egypt along others in Morocco and Tunisia, those clubs export talents to Europe and Gulf Area (Arab Peninsula) and would pay more than Barca B. I would also bet clubs in Belgium of France (league 2) would take...

This is a weird deal

They have improved their backline with 3 key players, and will likely get some of the injured players back. They need a better controller in midfield and possibly another CB too, but overall they should be in a much better place than last year

Bartou has appreciated La Masia, he simply didn't know how to run it. It is why I laugh when someone call a certain strategy a Bartou one. The guy tried everything but was just clueless. Regarding La Masia and Laporta, things don't "just" happen, we are clearly improved in that area under him...

Of the 9 talents called (8 La Masia and Roony as signing). Diarra is injured, so his preseason os over, 3 sent to the B team, 3 will stay and a decision to be made for the remaining 2.

It is true, and something I've argued about for years. Second division is the absolute worst place to develop talents, unless it is a very specific situation where the player is granted starter there on loan. As a reserve team, almost every club does worse in developing talents when they are...

Possibly, but I think returning to Camp Nou will ensure Laporta an election win, he needs it to happen before the end of the season unless he is too comfortable he is going to win regardless.

And Torres too.

Real has forced Camavinga to fire Sisoko in order to join iirc. It isn't out of question to ask to change agents, it isn't the right thing to do but it isn't exactly a clean business

Fabrizio has settled in being an aggregator who tells what agents want him to say, while bringing easy engagement. Barca has massive fanbase and quiet window, he will mention us and Diaz at every possible way. It will provoke Barca, Liverpool and Bayern fan bases without affecting his reputation.

I still believe we were willing to make a certain sale for Nico to come here, but not for other options.
