Posted on December 31, 2021 at 2:30 p.m. by Hadrien Grenier While FC Barcelona is announced in the footsteps of Erling Haaland, the Catalan club would simultaneously activate a plan B in the face of the complexity of the case. FC Barcelona has a big dream , and this one is called Erling Haaland . Let's put it in context. In the midst of a sporting and financial crisis, the Catalan club intends to launch a new virtuous cycle by renewing its workforce. It is with this in mind that a player like Ferran Torres was signed this week with € 55m + € 10m in bonuses paid to Manchester City . But to get off to a good start, Barça needs a figurehead, all the more so after the painful departure of Leo Messi from the side of Paris Saint-Germain last summer after his contract ended. It is with this in mind that the Catalan club intends to enlist Erling Haaland during the next summer transfer window, he who will have a release clause set at an amount between € 75 million and € 90 million. . But now, nothing will be simple in this case for the Catalan club, despite the privileged relationship between Joan Laporta , the president of FC Barcelona , and Mino Raiola , the Norwegian striker's agent. It must be said that Erling Haaland promises to be one of the main attractions of the transfer market in the coming months. Many clubs do indeed wish to secure their services. As revealed by le10sport.com, PSG is one of the contenders, the Parisian club seeing in the native of Leeds the ideal successor to Kylian Mbappé , approached on the side of the Real Madrid . At the same time, the Merengue are also mentioned in the footsteps of Erling Haaland , as is Manchester City . In short, faced with this tough competition and with its limited finances, FC Barcelona does not have the slightest guarantee in the race for the signing of the former RB Salzburg player As it stands. Of course, everything suggests that Barça will do everything in their power to secure the signature of Erling Haaland . But faced with the complexity of the matter, the Catalan club have reportedly decided to look into the possibility of a Plan B according to the latest information from Spain. According to the indiscretions unveiled by Mundo Deportivo this Friday, this quest would lead FC Barcelona straight to Dušan Vlahović . At the end of his contract on June 30, 2023, the very prolific 21-year-old scorer (16 goals scored in 20 Serie A matches this season) does not wish to renew his lease at Fiorentina . As a result, the Italian club won't be against selling him in the next summer transfer window and won't be able to claim an exorbitant amount given the situation. Naturally, the track leading to the Serbian striker no is not cheap, but it is likely to be less expensive than the Erling Haaland operation. This is why FC Barcelona would look into it according to Mundo Deportivo, who also specifies that his agents had proposed it to the Catalan club in the summer of 2020. No agreement could be found with Fiorentina at the time for a loan with option to buy, but things could now be more fluid according to the Spanish media. It remains to be seen whether all of this will translate into concrete action on the part of the Blaugrana. Be careful, however, FC Barcelona will not be the only one to try its luck as Dušan Vlahović promises to be one of the major market players in the coming months. Mundo Deportivo rightly reminds that Atlético de Madrid is on his trail, while English clubs are regularly announced as being interested in the player whose market value amounts to € 70 million according to the site. specialist Transfermarkt.
