Barça is prepared to sign a midfielder in this January market, waiting for there to be salary margin to be able to formalize his registration. Xavi Hernández is pushing to reinforce the squad after Gavi’s long-term absence and Pedri’s physical problems, since any other setback would leave him in the draw. At the club they are optimistic and believe that a loan could come at the end of the month.
The Blaugrana coach and the sports director, Deco, agree that the situation is delicate. There is overbooking in the offensive zone and at the back the squad offers many options, but in the midfield they believe that an alternative with international experience would be useful to face the decisive phase of the season.
Barça is having problems creating the game and there are very stressed players like Gundogan, who have played almost everything.
The president of Barça, Joan Laporta, is aware of the coach’s demands but asks for time. Barça needs to enter to have a salary limit and everything depends on the definitive sale of Barça Studios after the non-payment of Líbero.
The club is negotiating with two investment funds and could close this sale in a matter of a few days, but they are analyzing the operations carefully since they do not want to have another failure in this matter. Everything indicates that a Mexican fund could carry out the operation, which would bring 40 million euros to the firm.
The Blaugrana sports management is ready. The possibility of advancing a transfer operation that was going to be carried out in the summer is on the table, but finally it seems that an emergency solution would be opted for with the arrival of a player for six months on loan. The chosen one would be a pivot with good physique who can perform both in front of the defense and inside.
