Barca Transfers and Rumors

[vuji_31]

Any transfer window that leaves a 37 year old as starting striker for the biggest club in the world, is a massive failure, for me.

Best what we can do.

Doesn't matter who you are, you can't be a 37-year-old starting CF for FC Barcelona.

Yep.

Grimaldo: "Al Barça le guardo mucho cariño"

Alejandro Grimaldo, 29 años, no se ha cerrado la puerta a su regreso al FC Barcelona, justo el día después de que MD desvelara que está en la agenda del club

He moves Barca very much!

It's happening.

If we sign

a GK, ST/LF, and a LB,

that's 3 of the 4 positions I said we should improve; the other being DM, but that's a more high-potential signing to take us to a different level—it was never going to realistically happen.

Me, Deco, Flick, and Waporta are cooking,

Just trust that process.

Next summer CB and ST.

DM? Wut? Frenkie plays deep, Casado is there and Bernal is back - we're stacked in all midfield positions. We need a decent CB or it all goes to shit anyway, 1-2 complete fuckups by Araujo and we're out of CL next season - as usual.

That's why i said it's more a high potential signing.

The right DM would unlock another level, until bernal is right.

Not a needed signing, just another level signing.

Arsenal rumoured to be releasing/rescinding 20 or so contracts, including Thomas Partey.

Probably where our rumoured interest stemmed from.

Would be a play for depth and take the pressure off Bernal returing- cap permitting.

No thanks to Partey.
There's way too many red flags with that guy. Both on and off the field.

Old already, also african. Who knows his real age.

I'm reading that Deco and the club were very keen on Cherki, but didn't have him as priority as it would be dependent on the exits of Pablo Torre and Fermin or Ferran who we don't have transfer listed per se but had interest, and we would be willing to sell for the right price.

That's now off the table as Pauper Pep has swooped in for Cherki.

Just thought I'd post that here as to me, it seems a very shrewd assessment and shows that the club, and Deco, are working on more levels and with more cards than they are letting on.

Something for the forum SDs (myself included!) to think about when we shout and scream "huuuh errrh, we should be getting a GK" and then the Joan Garcia and Stegen stories emerge, we need a LB for depth as "Martin sucks at football and he sucks at accounting", and then the Grimaldo stories emerge. And now, "we should be looking at guys like Cherki" and it emerges that we actually were/are.

We should say hell no to Cherki that guy is not going to do anything and will make Barca worse

According to this account we signed Cardoso Varela

DINAMO TO GET OVER €10M FOR VARELA! Barcelona have activated Cardoso Varela’s €5m release clause, but after Zvonimir Boban's intervention, the winger will stay at Dinamo for at least one more season. Barça secure future rights, while Dinamo could earn over €10m with add-ons. [SN]

Apparently we have been linked with him since last year at least.

 

[DonAK]

Can one of our half a dozen Dinamo fans on here tell us if this guy is any good

That was like thunder from a clear sky...

 

[xXKonan]

Turns 17 in October, but he must be a decent talent if we are willing to pay his clause.

I have no idea who this guy is if it is true.

 

[Joan]

He’s playing with Dinamo juniors, haven’t actually seen him.

That said, we were in for him after he left Porto.

 

[Porque]

This whole thing comes across shady af.

But the only detail I'm interested in his how are his stats since going to Croatia. He may very well be killing it.

 

[DonAK]

It's shady as fuck for sure. Just read up on him and Andy Bara and how he ended up in Croatia lol.

But he was apparently so highly rated that Porto fans also attacked Andy Bara's home so I guess maybe worth a punt...
