Sold, Laporta's fed up, he's one of Barça's highest earners: KO to Lamine Yamal

Blow for Lamine Yamal, one of his close friends is very close to leaving FC Barcelona in this market

FC Barcelona is going through a season full of challenges, the team led by Flick has had to deal with injuries, tactical adjustments, and the pressure to comply with the FPF. One of the coaching staff's biggest concerns is finding a suitable replacement for Robert Lewandowski. He's still the offensive reference for the blaugrana team but needs more support in attack to maintain his performance.

In recent matches, Ferran Torres has emerged as one of the team's great news. The Valencian forward has taken advantage of opportunities, showing a more consistent level of play and contributing decisive goals. Yesterday, Torres scored again, consolidating himself as a key piece in Hansi Flick's plans.

His improvement contrasts with the lack of effectiveness of other strikers in the team, which has led Barça to rethink its offensive strategy. The need to strengthen the forward line is not only for sporting reasons but also financial. With one of the most expensive teams in LaLiga, the club seeks to balance its accounts.

Laporta Wants a Blow

The winter market appears as a great opportunity to adjust salaries and generate income, taking advantage of the interest of several teams in some players who haven't performed as expected. Among these players, Ansu Fati, who is not experiencing his best moment at Barcelona. After an entire year without scoring goals, the Spanish forward hasn't managed to recover his best version.

Hansi Flick, a former coach who coincided with him in a different context, recently commented that he hasn't been able to bring out the best in the young striker. This severe lack of impact, combined with one of the highest salaries in the team, has led FC Barcelona to seriously consider his departure this winter. He's a player who no longer gets regular minutes, and the club understands he needs to leave.

Valencia and Girona after Ansu

The club has already received proposals for the homegrown player, and his future seems to be moving away from Barcelona. The management trusts that a possible transfer will not only relieve finances but also allow for the incorporation of a replacement more in line with the team's current needs. Ansu, despite his talent, hasn't managed to establish himself as a reliable substitute for the scorer Robert Lewandowski, and Barça needs urgent solutions to continue competing at the highest level.

With Ferran Torres on the rise and the pressure to balance the budget, the winter market will be key to defining the next steps for the culé team. The future of Ansu Fati could be one of the most notable moves of this period. Valencia and Girona join the list of teams that could welcome the former international with the Spanish national team of Luis Enrique Martínez, at Barça they hope he leaves.
