welcomes the 2022 summer transfer market with financial conditions that are not good enough. The option of bringing players in the transfer market is a priority, including former Manchester United (MU) player Adnan Januzaj.
It's no secret that Barcelona has not been great in the last two seasons. The regime of Josep Maria Bartomeu left a fairly acute crisis and now has an impact on the era of Joan Laporta's leadership as President of Barcelona.
The financial crisis prevented Barcelona from signing Lionel Messi in the summer of 2021. In addition, Barcelona also had to release a number of players at lower prices to reduce their salary burden.
This situation will continue into the 2022/2023 season. The most obvious impact will be seen in the transfer market, especially for players who will be signed by Barcelona in the summer of 2022.
Barcelona Hard to Get Raphinha
Xavi needs a player for the winger Barcelona. The scenario that will happen is that Barcelona loses two players who play left winger positions, namely Adama Traore who is returned to Wolves and Ousmane Dembele has not signed a new contract.
Barcelona have several alternatives to replace Adama Traore and Ousmane Dembele. However, the first choice was Raphinha from Leeds United. Communication has been established with Deco, the agent who represents Raphinha, for a long time.
However, there is a release clause of 25 million euros in Raphinha's contract that Barcelona must redeem. That lift makes Barcelona count carefully, as they also need to think about the transfer of Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich.
Forced to take Adnan Januzaj?
As reported by Sport , Barcelona will probably choose another name. Raphinha will be left out of the options and Adnan Januzaj could be the main option.
The former Manchester United (MU) player's contract with Real Sociedad will expire in June 2022. This means that Januzaj will be on a free transfer.
This situation will make Barcelona unable to turn away the possibility of signing winger next summer.
Free, Why Not?
Bringing players with free status is not a bad thing for a team. In fact, this can be a very profitable business. Barcelona also often do it in the 2021/2022 season.
Barcelona signed Memphis Depay and Eric Garcia on free transfers. Then in January 2022, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang came to Camp Nou after terminating his contract with Arsenal.
In the 2021/2022 season, Barcelona has also reached an agreement with two players on free transfers. The two players are Franck Kessie from AC Milan and Andreas Christensen from Chelsea. Very promising business from Barcelona.
