    Aron Yaakobishvili

    Kochen had 17 games in Barca B in his career, while having just 2 games in YUCL I doubt he would have got a starter position in Segunda, and he had never been a fully starter with Barca B, when things got serious Barca B used Astralaga over him. I think both Yaakob and Kochen were on the block...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    The situation with Tek, Roony and Martin is a bit easier than the rest. Martin is already registered as B team player, he just can't play more than 10 game, Tek is Free Agent, so he can be registered any time, Roony can be registered as B team player, at least until we give him minutes, I doubt...

    This has already been denied, by none other than the athletic who are far more reliable than Romano who is more of aggregator this days and will say things to please clubs

    Patrick Kluivert

    Should move the thread to Barca history btw @Andresito @Barcaman

    7 - Ferran Torres

    Both sides (Lewa and Barca) will 100% engage in renewal talks, I have no doubts. The question is obviously salary and ambition, Barca can't afford to offer him big deal, not with winger and defense still being massive issues and FFP putting us on the ropes. Is he willing to do that to stay in...

    Alexander Isak

    If the key word. Granted money from clubs not willing to insert buyout clause, vs a potential bigger pay if the player explode. They will always choose the former

    Alexander Isak

    I think with more money, clubs will be more averse to putting buyouts. Clubs will always have upper hand when negotiating with agents who are too eager to get their commissions. Maybe if you have top agent like the Railoas and Mendes of the world

    Patrick Kluivert

    Putting this here, in order to not drag another thread in different discussion. Kluivert had 4 straight seasons with 20+ goals, that is actually very good output for a striker during that era. Only his first season (adapting to Barca as 22 years old signing) and his last season (he severely...

    Ander Astralaga (loaned to Granada)

    2 games and he is the one on the bench. The good news is they conceded 3 goals per game, and lost both. So there is a chance he will be tried soon. Not really high on him, but I wish we can at least move on from him smoothly.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    Sure, if the bar is the the level of strikers we are used to, from Romario to Ronaldo, Kluivert, Eto, Suarez and Lewa. With Messi being a false 9 for half decade. Torres will always lose against such comparison. But if you look at the market for current no9, even without considering our...

    Fort and Inaki should go first, even if we are paying part of their wages.

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    It isn't Bartou's fault, but as I said before, big clubs are forced to overpay for bench players. People act as it is a privilege to be in Barca, playing beside superstars etc, when it just put peer pressure on players to match a certain life style that a starting GK in lower table can't have...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Clubs want it, that is the bottom line. The presidents will go on public and speak against it, how it should be more loose etc, but they will vote for the same rules and same person behind the closed doors. Tebas is the ultimate scapegoat for clubs, they can tell their fans they would love to...

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    It was said that his salary was too high for any club to agree on buying him. The club is probably decreasing his salary (you get less this season, but over two years you are granted more money overall) and hoping he will do good enough for someone to bite on a less salary by 2026

    The levers are income, just like any income. An organization that had to sell some of its assets in order to compensate for previous losses. Sure, we won't be living on levers forever, neither that is the plan. The plan is that with Camp Nou we will be stable top 5 or 6 in Europe financially...

    Barca squad/XI 25/26

    Pena is registered. Fort is being sold, Bernal and Roony can stay in B team as they are both U-22. Tek and G.Martin are the main problem. Martin being over 22 means he can't play more than 10 games in La Liga

    13 - Joan García

    Levers were made to pay for the losses of the past, that is what it is. Almost every club in Spain has done it, with Real Madrid being the pioneer in that regard. The studios were made with the idea of selling them with Bartou's own admission, and having partners who can run it and make the best...

    Trincão

    Barca operates as a big rich club, who is located in Spain. And it is a club that has a policy of keeping it's own talents as long as they can, until they are 100% sure they aren't working here. It doesn't matter matter who we hire, we won't be like them, we aren't working as shop window like...

    Trincão

    Portuguese clubs knows how to scam buyers, Trincao isn't worth anything north of 20M as he still has same issues of speed and playing on slow motion without the rest of his game being elite to compensate for it. He is a squad depth in EPL at most. The fact that they are likely selling him for...

    23 - Jules Kounde

    We didn't really overpay for him, we are just not used to pay market value for defenders. He is the only defender we paid anything significant for to sign, since Laporta's comeback. 5 summers and only one defender we paid more than 5M for. He is only the 4th defender we paid more than 25M for...
