FC Barcelona are reportedly intending to offer one or more reinforcements to Xavi, who would particularly pinch Raheem Sterling.
Barely arrived, Xavi quickly called for reinforcements from its leaders. However, the cash registers of FC Barcelona are empty and recently Joan Laporta reminded his manager of the obstacle represented by the salary cap put in addition by La Liga. “Reinforcements in January?” We will try to strengthen the team if the coach asks for it, and he asked us to do so, but we don't have the salary margin at the moment and if we don't have it, we cannot sign ”a explained the president of Barça, in remarks reported by Mundo Deportivo. However, the Catalan press assures that Xavi would always push to have at least one recruit this winter, with the name of Ferran Torres which returns regularly.
Sterling has not been forgotten in Barcelona
The Spaniard is not the only Manchester City player followed by FC Barcelona. This Friday, ESPN announces that if Ferran Torres is a very popular profile, within Barça we would continue to keep a close eye on the situation of Raheem Sterling. His contract ends in 2023 and at 26, he seems ready to give new impetus to his career by going abroad. However, it remains to be seen how Barça will be able to support the 18M € net that the Englishman is currently earning at City.
