Mundo Deportivo provides information on Laporta's strategy to finance its winter recruitment. Analysis.
In recent hours, the Spanish media have revealed that FC Barcelona had put up for sale several items deemed non-essential by Xavi for the winter transfer window. On this list, we find in particular the names of Philippe Coutinho and Samuel Umtiti . If Barça is putting these players up for sale, it is of course in order to free up some financial leeway for the recruitment of a center-forward in January, as is the objective.
< h2> If Laporta is counting on sales to finance the Cavani deal…
None of this is innovative. It has been several years since Barça , regardless of the presidency, put these players on the market to finance its recruitment, given its budgetary state. And each time this strategy proves to be a failure, because it is impossible to sell items with high salaries and being in difficult sporting situations. If President Laporta is counting on this strategy to finance his Cavani operation this winter, it has to be said that it has virtually no chance of success.
