Deco had a difficult summer for his first full summer transfer window as Barça’s sporting director. The Portuguese, hampered by the financial difficulties of the Blaugrana club, was unable to carry out all the operations he wanted. Particularly on the Nico Williams file, which the former Porto player took special care of, speaking several times with the player and his entourage.
This difficult transfer window until the end has worn out Deco’s strength. Sport reveals that the Barcelona leader is said to have said:“I am the poorest sports director in Europe” in a hotel just before receiving a player’s agent. According to the Spanish media, the club’s financial problems and the unfulfilled promises of its president, Joan Laporta, even pushed Deco to talk to some agents about leaving. Highly criticized on social networks and in the media, the 47-year-old is now seriously considering leaving his position.
