Barcelona still planning three exits and two arrivals this summer, have informed La Liga

Journalist Gerard Romero has claimed that Barcelona want to carry out as many as three exits and two arrivals before the transfer window slams shut. As part of their pre-planning, the Blaugrana have already notified La Liga about it.

With only a handful of days left in the transfer market, the Barcelona management is working on quick movements as several players continue to face uncertain futures.

The club’s recent struggles and financial constraints have necessitated a strategic approach to transfers, focusing on both departures and arrivals.

The exits are expected to not only streamline the squad but also provide financial relief. This move aligns with Barcelona’s long-term goal of maintaining a sustainable and competitive team despite financial challenges.

Who are expected to leave?

We have reported before that there are as many as four players who could leave Catalonia this summer. This includes defenders Clement Lenglet, Eric Garcia, Marcos Alonso, and young forward Ez Abde.

Among the aforementioned, Lenglet is highly tipped to leave as he continues to work on a larger token. Talks with Tottenham Hotspur and Saudi Arabia have already collapsed, but Sevilla have recently shown interest.

Garcia, on the other hand, is least expected to leave mostly because of the fitness concerns of Ronald Araujo, Andreas Christensen, and Inigo Martinez. As far as Alonso is concerned, any defensive arrival this summer would force him towards the exit.

Lastly, Abde is said to be disappointed with how Barcelona have handled his future this summer. And with plenty of offers on the table, the Blaugrana might consider and exit.

Who will arrive?

Simultaneously, the club is preparing for the arrival of two new players. While the specific positions targeted remain undisclosed, a right-back, Joao Cancelo, is said to be close to joining the club.

The timing of these transfers adds an air of suspense to Barcelona’s strategy. The final days of the transfer window are often marked by intense negotiations and last-minute decisions, and this is exactly what is expected to happen with Joao Felix.

The Atletico Madrid forward is said to be waiting for Barcelona to come up with an offer, but as long as there are no exits from the current roster, the team from Catalonia just cannot approach the player.
