Barça is in a complicated economic situation and there are no longer any levers with which to make up for the lack of financial muscle to go to the market. The reality is stark and, in fact, he will even have to face, externally or internally, amounts already quantified in the balance sheets that have not been satisfied, such as the 40 million that Libero did not pay and for which the club has sued him. inversor group.
One of the solutions contemplated by the entity and that must be carried out next summer is the sale of important players from the first team. There are many names that have been heard for weeks , but, beyond calls showing interest in them or surveys that sometimes lead nowhere, there are three Blaugrana players who are in pole position on the exit ramp.
The reason is that the club has already received offers for them. This was confirmed by Joan Laporta to the Barcelona opinion groups with whom he met on Monday at the club’s offices.
Araujo, reluctantly
Araujo’s case is the best known, although it is also the most delicate because they have him one hundred percent. The problem is that Bayern is pressing and has already contacted the player himself to find out his intentions. He wants to stay, but Barça needs to make money. The offer that Barça is considering is more than 70 million euros and, in addition, the Bavarians would double the Uruguayan’s salary in Germany. Everything possible will be done to keep him in the team, but it is impossible to promise anything at this time. His agents arrived in Barcelona this Wednesday.
Frenkie says yes
For his part, Frenkie de Jong, who, like the Uruguayan, has a contract until June 30, 2026 , is also pending his future. Something similar happens, although in his case he has always refused to leave Barcelona. An extreme that this season seems to have changed . The player shows symptoms, and this is how they explain it internally, of disconnection, something that is affecting his football. Hence, a possible exit is being seriously considered. Tottenham, according to ‘Jijantes’, is interested and would offer 60 million, an amount that includes variables. In any case, there are more teams interested and Barça is in no hurry because if the player says yes, the bid could be important.
Raphinha has a lot of market
In the case of Raphinha , a footballer who was represented by Deco and who now has no agent, would also have received important offers. As is the case with De Jong, the Brazilian would also be on Tottenham ‘s radar , which would be willing to pay up to 70 million euros . It is not the only offer. The club has another interesting proposal in its possession, although the club that made it has not yet been revealed.
In short, Barça is willing to listen to everyone and there are very few players who are not transferable, but, at the same time, those who have the greatest chance of leaving are Araujo, De Jong and Raphinha.
