Like every summer, nothing is easy for FC Barcelona. Coming out of an unproductive and disappointing season, the Catalan club was keen to start again on a healthier basis for the upcoming vintage. But despite the promising arrival of Hansi Flick on the bench, finances do not allow the German coach’s ideas to come to life. For many years, Barça has been facing terrible cash flow problems that do not always allow it to attract quality players. This summer, the Camp Nou residents are having difficulty in completing the arrival of Nico Williams.

A confusing situation that could distance the European champion from Catalonia. In the past, this deleterious economic situation had also forced the Catalans to make some unexpected purchases. Bets that have not all turned out to be fruitful, like the one that was made with Oriol Romeu. Trained at La Masia, the defensive midfielder had returned to his training club last summer. An arrival that had been accompanied by the doubts of the culés supporters who were not mistaken about the 32-year-old player.

Oriol Romeu to return to Girona

A starter at the start of the season, the former Southampton player appeared in 37 games with the Blaugranas and often provided valuable services to Xavi. However, far from being a poor player, Romeu did not seem to be cut out to take on the role of starter with the Barcelona team. From then on, his future seemed to be written in dotted lines with Barça. In this sense, things seriously started to move this Friday. Present at the American tour with his teammates, Oriol Romeu will return to the other side of the Atlantic in order to decide on his future as announced by the club culé during the evening. At the same time, Sport announced that the player would return to Girona.

Indeed, on its website, the Catalan media claims that Michel wanted to bring back a player who had shone with the other Catalan club during the 2022-2023 season. Girona’s leader, he had shone so much that Barça had looked into his case. According to our Iberian colleagues, the native of Ulldecona will return to his former club in the form of a loan. This transaction, which has been progressing in secret for a few days, is close to being concluded and should be effective in the coming days. Undermined by irregular performance and numerous physical problems during his year at Barça, the Chelsea transfer will be keen to relaunch with a team that will compete in the Champions League next year.
