Zapping World Eleven EXCLUDED: Geyoro, Karchaoui and Périsset’s “Little Sister” interview!
Barça must degrease to achieve its objectives. The Catalan club has big ambitions on the transfer market and wants to recruit several big names, starting with Robert Lewandowski. However, the Blaugranas, in financial difficulty for many months, must part with certain players to reduce their payroll and pocket a few million euros. As a result, several players are pushed out. If Clément Lenglet and Samuel Umtiti should quickly pack up, the French are not the only ones concerned.
Laporta wants 8 million for Braithwaite
Thus, Martin Braithwaite is also one of the players to leave Barça. However, according to information from Sport, Joan Laporta does not intend to release his player from his last years of contract. The Catalan president wants to recover 8 million euros to let slip the Danish international, courted by several Premier League teams.
Riqui Puig candidate for a loan
Riqui Puig is also one of the candidates for a departure. The young midfielder is short of game time and Xavi made him understand that it would be better for his career if he left Catalonia. However, the player trained at La Masia does not intend to leave permanently. A loan is under consideration and Benfica and Fiorentina have positioned themselves. Barça does not close the door to this option but wants the player to extend before leaving, so as not to be free at the end of the next season.
to summarize
Barça is looking to part with several players to reduce its payroll and be able to recruit its priority targets on the transfer window. However, Joan Laporta does not intend to sell off Martin Braithwaite and Riqui Puig.
