    20 - Dani Olmo

    To my understanding, the supposed official process is that you should tell his club that you are triggering the deal, deposite the money in the federation (that part I'm not sure off) and then you get to talk to the player and if he agrees, he signs and the money goes to the club. If he refuses...

    Oriol Romeu

    Second outgoing that we know off with official announcement. Good sign tbh and give me hope that there are more that we are working on it. They can take him, but why they should do it? They can get him on loan, and next year do another loan if they wanted without any commitments from their...

    20 - Dani Olmo

    Will Zubimendi leave? It us a weird situation. He is 25, not a prospect anymore. His name always come with big clubs like us, Bayern, Arsenal & Chelsea. And yet not a single serious talks with him. Something doesn't add up, either he wants to stay put or big clubs actually agree he is not...

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    We don't know what is her chromosomes, it seems the tests were never done and isn't a standard procedure, to my understanding at least. It is all about the hormonal tests, apparently she has more than normal level of testosterone, but Olympic committee and international boxing federation (I am...

    Nico Williams

    It is a player decision saga, most transfer rumours are about club negotiations with agents or clubs using journalists to push their narrative. Now, niether Bilbao or Nico needs that, and even Barca reached the most they would want with confirming we are there for him and his favourite...

    20 - Dani Olmo

    Zubimendi if he ever accepts to leave, but that is unlikely. He will also be fairly underwhelming for expectations but he will add balance. Ugarte fits the CDM need, but he is Romeu level on the ball, would add some muscle and athletic ability for midfield. Fabian Ruiz is rumoured to be in the...

    Martín Zubimendi

    You have to wonder if this guy is even open to a move? With 60M release clause you would think some club will take a punt or even enters a serious negotiation, nothing in the past 3 years. I don't believe he is any sort of saviour, but can be a 6/10 type of a starter.

    Nico Williams

    Perez has begged on his knees for Mbappe for literally 3 years, just lost the biggest CB prospect in the world to Manu with no alternatives in sight. Perez never had to run a club in financial crisis either, and when he had a strong opponent in his 2nd term, he won one Liga title in 4 years...

    Nico Williams

    I don't have anything to blame for the club in this saga, we tried for him when he was an expiring contract. He decided to renew with his boyhood club. We couldn't have afforded him until we made sure about the Nike and Libro money are arriving, that was around the Euros. Nico fit the age...

    Mikel Merino

    It is 30M and add-ons too. That throw the "he is cheap" thing out of the window. And I doubt his salary is that small either. He isn't a pivot either nor young, so it us understandable that we didn't go for him. And yes, it is still better him than Olmo (unless we sell).

    He is, a friendly doesn't change that. Let's see in April how it goes

    Frenkie de Jong

    Even if it happens, it will be a massive financial relief tbh. With that said, I feel he might decide to leave next summer. He will be coming from a serious ankle injury at 28, another injury like that can destroy his value even as free agent. His amortization and deferred wage will be much...

    Julián Álvarez

    And yet, you keep complaining about them non stop, and complaining about us buying City rejects. And Lautaro is still not Barca quality at the age of 27 and not worth the investment, while actually being the bigger talent than Alvarez whom people judge mainly based on couple of great WC games...

    Julián Álvarez

    Alvarez is getting a bit overrated tbh, he isn't worth 80M and isn't good enough as starting 9 for a club of our caliber. Atletico is actually his level but that ain't happening either.

    Nico Williams

    I mean if we judge based on Barca B team, Darvish and Faye were good deals, at least the later.

    Nico Williams

    tbf, what could Deco do if we don't have the money. Technically Alemany is the one who made the Roque deal, although we know Deco was the brain for it. But we lost Arda due to money, same with the Swedish guy, we are yet be able to show money for our targets. Which is essentially one player who...

    Nico Williams

    But this didn't happen. Xavi approved Roque deal last summer, he wanted a DM n winter, but the money on Roque was already spent and registration of a new signing means a money we didn't have.

    Nico Williams

    If we don't get Nico, either register Roque and live with having him, or blow all the money on Zubimendi buyout clause.

    Youssoufa Moukoko

    I can't see EPL being a good move for him, maybe some club will take a punt on him but it will be a terrible move. I think he should stay in Bundesliga tbh, or go to a club like Getafe or something in Spain.
