In desperate situations, urgent solutions must be found. And in Barça they continue to live a drama due to the financial limitations that cause all movements to be with the utmost caution and caution.
At the moment, Joan Laporta has not wanted to speak, but they have not yet been able to register either the renewals that have closed, nor the new reinforcements that have been finalized, such as those of Ilkay Gündogan and Íñigo Martínez. Vitor Roque, on the other hand, will arrive in January.
While more new faces are expected to arrive, it’s all about revenue for now. Specifically, they need a minimum of 60 million euros, and the first to leave will be Franck Kessié , who is expected to land at Juventus in Turin.
However, he will not be the only one sacrificed, and Ez Abde and Nico González, who have just returned from loan, can also leave, as well as Sergiño Dest, Samuel Umtiti and Clément Lenglet , who are not part of Xavi Hernández’s plans.
And an unexpected sale may be that of Jules Koundé.
espite the fact that he seemed to be untouchable, it may be that in the Camp Nou they have no other choice. And they are very seriously considering the possibility of getting rid of the French international, to obtain a significant amount of money in return.
Although the Catalan coach counts on him as an indispensable piece, the reality is that he is not considered essential, due to the irregular performance he has shown in recent months.
He has left many doubts acting in the right-back, a demarcation where he has assured that he is not quite comfortable, and that he wishes to stop occupying.
The problem is that his ideal role, that of central, is reserved for Ronald Araújo and Andreas Christensen, who have shown to understand each other wonderfully, forming a very reliable and solid duo.
Therefore , in Barça they have no intention of resituating the former Girondins de Bordeaux and Sevilla in the axis of the rear guard.
And this has caused Koundé to think about leaving, as Mateu Alemany publicly stated in his statements.
Xavi accepts the sale of Koundé, if it is in exchange for a lot of money
Xavi will not stand in the way and will accept the sale of Koundé, which he understands may become mandatory for Barça. But expect Laporta to get a lot of money in return.
Specifically, they will ask for a minimum of 70 kilos, 20 more than it cost the previous summer.
