Losing a Clasico never leaves you unscathed. Especially at FC Barcelona. Yesterday, the Spanish press revealed that despite the 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final, Xavi was not threatened. However, behind the scenes, his case is not completely unanimous. This Tuesday, El Chiringuito reveals that president Joan Laporta and the sporting director do not necessarily agree. If the first supports his coach, the second is for placing Rafa Marquez on the bench of the first team.
At the same time, the residents of Camp Nou must also manage the transfer window. A market where they want to get their hands on a midfielder to strengthen the midfield that has been orphaned since the departure of Sergio Busquets. Oriol Romeu, who arrived this summer, did not really impress. But as always, when it comes time for the transfer market, the Blaugrana have to deal with the fact that they have certain financial concerns. But they obviously found a way to get money into their coffers this winter.
Barça will fill its coffers
This will not necessarily be thanks to player sales, although of course the club still hopes to achieve some of them. Indeed, FC Barcelona will sell part of their assets, as has already been done in the recent past. Thus, the Culés will sell 49% of the shares of Barça Studios, “the entity which centralizes the creation, production and marketing of all FC Barcelona audiovisual offerings” according to (Sport)(https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/barca-prepara-fichar-96933125.
Thanks to this, the Catalan club, which has already informed La Liga of this future sale and which has prepared the necessary documents; should therefore receive 200 million euros. Two investment funds are very interested and the managers will have to decide and choose the most interesting and solid offer. The chosen candidate will have to pay 50 million euros this winter. Enough to help the FCB invest in the transfer window. Recruiting a midfielder is the priority, but Xavi wants to find a replacement for Gavi while Deco prefers to find Busquets’ successor. An arrival on loan or a direct transfer are not excluded for this mystery player. To be continued…
