Moments of great tension are being experienced in Barça's offices for some time now, mainly for the upper echelons of the Catalan club. It's no wonder: the culé team is going through one of the most critical points of the season in every sense, both sportingly and economically. In this regard, both Laporta and Deco have a great deal of work ahead to bring order to the institution in the face of so many problems.
It's evident that the pressure from La Liga and the limitations of "Financial Fair Play" haven't gone unnoticed in the club's offices. Faced with this, the president and the sporting director of Barça are exploring all possible options to raise funds and free up salary mass to maneuver the situation with ease. The upper echelons, along with Hansi Flick as the first team's coach, are quite clear: to overcome the difficulty, this major transfer must be closed.
Desperate Measures
Barça has already been warned by La Liga on more than one occasion that, if the necessary departures aren't achieved, it won't be possible to register new players as "reinforcements." Deco, who has known this for some time, has been working tirelessly on a roadmap that can "free" FC Barcelona from existing financial limitations. This plan includes nothing less than the more than likely departure of six players from the first team managed by Hansi Flick.
A radical measure in the face of an alarming situation, as the club risks losing a key player in its sports project, as well as suffering an economic blow. Laporta has given the "OK" and the plan has been set in motion, knowing that the players on the way out would leave a good space in the salary mass. In fact, all these players have offers in the market who could offer interesting figures.
Immediate Solution
There's no doubt that one of Barça's main objectives in the face of the complex sports reality is to achieve the definitive registration of Dani Olmo as soon as possible. The Spanish midfielder has gone through tough days amid uncertainty about his participation in the second half of the season prior to the recent precautionary measure. However, Barça doesn't want to expose itself again and is already working to secure his future as a player for the Catalan club.
In this regard, the latest information suggests that there's a list with defined names to leave the first team. This list would be made up of Ronald Araújo, Andreas Christensen, Frenkie De Jong, Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, and Eric García. The coming days will be crucial considering that a balance must be found between maintaining competitiveness on the field and stabilizing the accounts.
