With less than ten days until the January transfer window closes, clubs are rushing to make their final moves. Teams are looking to strengthen, taking advantage of this last opportunity to bring in players who can make a difference in the coming months. Among these teams is Barça, which is still looking for ways to sign players.
Barça, with Hansi Flick, knows it needs to give the team a boost to maintain competitive pace in La Liga and the Champions League. Despite having a quality team, injuries and some dips in performance from certain players have forced the management to act. Therefore, they have set their sights on some options to strengthen the forward line, in addition to making some sales to facilitate this.
Deco's Pending Tasks toward the End of the Market
Barça's priorities in this final stretch of the transfer window are clear: the club seeks to finalize the loan of Marcus Rashford. The Englishman is Barça's great opportunity to strengthen their attack, as he is practically sidelined from Manchester United.
However, this operation is not easy to close, as the blaugrana club needs to make a sale before finalizing the arrival of Marcus Rashford. In this regard, the name of Ansu Fati has been one of the most mentioned, although the forward seems unwilling to leave, at least for now. Despite his future seeming uncertain, Ansu has been clear in his intentions to keep fighting for a spot in the first team.
Míchel's and Girona's Needs
Meanwhile, Girona, Míchel's team, is also looking to strengthen its team in this winter market. The red-and-white team's season has been irregular, with ups and downs in their performance that have prevented them from establishing themselves as a strong rival in La Liga and the Champions League.
The departure of key players last summer like Savinho and Aleix has left the team with significant gaps that need to be filled if they want to keep fighting for their season's objectives. The January market presents an opportunity to correct the course and return to the path of victory, and Míchel wants to take advantage of it in this winter market.
The Barça Player Míchel is Waiting for
Regarding signings, Girona is clear that it needs to bring in new talents to strengthen its defense, and the name they are pushing for is Eric García. In this regard, the Girona club is willing to offer up to ten million for his loan, aware that Eric García's quality and experience can be a great reinforcement.
However, Hansi Flick insists that he must stay at Barça; Eric's versatility is a highly valued aspect in the team. Eric García wants to play more minutes and must decide which path to take in these last days of the market.
