As the winter market, and seeing what the irregular performance of the team is, The chances of FC Barcelona promoting the transfer of a striker are increasing to balance the club’s accounts and also make room for the hypothetical arrival of Memphis Depay in exchange for 5-10 million euros, a price more than affordable.
Not counting Messi or Ansu Fati, which is one hundred percent despite the doubts with the Argentine, nor with a Trincao who just arrived, the attackers who have the ballots to leave the club in the coming months are Ousmane Dembélé, Philippe Coutinho, Antoine Griezmann and Martin Braithwaite. Of course, all four will not be out at once, but one of them may be in January.
Coutinho, who started very strong and deflated over the months, is the one with the most ballots to leave if a good offer arrives. The downside is that the Brazilian would not be willing to facilitate his departureHaving one of the highest salaries in the workforce and being aware that wherever you go, you will most likely earn less money.
Griezmann and Braithwaite don’t want to leave either, and also for the Dane would not receive much money. Yes for the Frenchman, although he remains convinced that he will succeed at Barça despite his intermittent performances. As for Dembélé, If you leave the staff, you will do so at the end of the contract, without renewal, to leave with the letter of release to Manchester United or another team that pays a transfer bonus or places a stratospheric salary.
You need to find a buyer
FC Barcelona, in short, will have a lot of work ahead if he wants to give way to one of the “cracks” of his attack. The first of all is to look for buyers who can pay a hefty price, which is rare at this time, given that the coronavirus has affected all clubs in the world, and especially the largest.
In the Camp Nou offices, in any case, hopes to deposit money to clean up the accounts and, if they fail before 24 January, the Management Committee will leave the matter in the hands of the new president culé, you will face your first important decisions. A moment of many changes is coming to Can Barça.
