FC Barcelona ‘s summer signing market , taking into account the bad economy that has been dragging the club down for a few years, can be classified as remarkable, especially taking into account the last-minute additions of Joao Cancelo and Joao Félix.
Joan Laporta’s idea was to finish strengthening a squad that had a large part of the base that, the previous season, reached the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey and managed to conquer LaLiga after some turbulent years.
So, the Blaugrana only had to make a few final touches to continue progressing and go in search of their next goal, the Champions League. While it is true that winning the top continental competition is an arduous task, after two years of falling flat in the group stage, Barça hope to reach the quarter-finals, at the very least.
At the moment, the culers’ campaign has started well for the club’s interests, however, not everyone is too happy with Xavi Hernández .
And it’s that, as they always say, it can’t rain to everyone’s liking, especially in terms of the minutes that the coach from Egara offers his footballers. In fact, one of the new faces of FC Barcelona has asked Deco to find him an exit in January due to the lack of opportunities that Xavi is giving him.
Íñigo Martínez has only been a Barcelona player for a few months, but he is already regretting his decision to sign with Barça. The Basque center did not renew his contract with the Athletic Club to fly to the Comtal city and undertake new challenges, however, he did not expect to find himself with so few minutes .
For this same reason, the defender envisions a future away from the Camp Nou , aware that the situation will not improve as long as men of the stature of Jules Kounde, Ronald Araujo – the golden couple at the back – or Andreas Christensen are still in the squad.
