Este verano, Barcelona has high hopes of bringing back Lionel Messi to Camp Nou, and to accomplish this, they plan to raise enough funds by selling three players: Kessie, Raphinha, and Christensen.
According to the president Joan Laporta and other club officials, Lionel Messi will have every opportunity to play a significant role for Barcelona in the upcoming season. The club is determined to provide Messi with the necessary support and resources to ensure his continued success at the club.
El acuerdo actual de Messi con el PSG expirará al final de la temporada actual, y las negociaciones para extender el acuerdo han resultado ser un desafío.
Laporta ha estado en comunicación con Jorge Messi, el padre y agente del astro argentino, durante varias semanas, pero el propio jugador aún debe tomar una decisión sobre su futuro.
La mayor preocupación del Barcelona radica en los obstáculos económicos a los que se enfrenta. Para que el club del Camp Nou pueda dar de alta a nuevos jugadores para la competición de LaLiga, primero debe reducir la masa salarial actual en 200 millones de euros.
Después de experimentar una pérdida en los ingresos del fútbol por segunda temporada consecutiva y no poder pasar de la fase de grupos de la Champions League y la Europa League, el Barcelona planea deshacerse de algunos de los jugadores que actualmente forman parte del equipo.
As a result, Messi’s return to Barcelona significantly depends on the successful completion of the following three settlement agreements:
– Franck Kessie: The Ivorian player has been in fantastic form recently, providing crucial tactical depth in midfield, especially considering the injuries to Pedri and Frenkie de Jong.
However, Xavi does not consider Kessie as his preferred player. Nonetheless, the former AC Milan player would provide a significant source of income for Barcelona once his transfer is completed.
The arrival of Gundogan could pave the way for Kessie to leave the club. Both Inter Milan and Tottenham have shown strong interest in acquiring his services.
The former Leeds United player and current Barcelona member has just had a fantastic match against Atlético, contributing to the club’s continued lead in the La Liga standings.
On the other hand, Raphinha is prone to erratic behavior and can have a poor attitude at times. After Messi’s return, the Brazilian player had fewer opportunities to start consistently.
Raphinha’s market value is quite high. His former Premier League clubs, Arsenal and Chelsea, as well as Newcastle, have expressed interest in re-signing him. It is anticipated that Barcelona will earn sixty million euros as a result of this deal, while also reducing a considerable salary.
– Andreas Christensen: The Danish player is considered one of the top central defenders in La Liga, fitting well into Xavi’s style of play.
Christensen ha atraído la atención de un número significativo de jugadores y entrenadores de clubes de la Premier League. El Barça es consciente de que ahora es un momento crucial para vender a la ex estrella del Chelsea, a la que adquirieron gratis el año anterior.
El Barça estimó que Christensen les pagaría un total de cincuenta millones de euros. Como compensación, el club se ha comprometido a pagar una tarifa menor para hacerse con los servicios del centrocampista defensivo Íñigo Martínez.
