In the transfer market, Barca has always been one of the protagonists, and there have been successive good scenes of sky-high reinforcements, and there is a reversal of the purge of Messi. Today, Barca can no longer spend a thousand dollars, and the pursuit of more cost-effective players is the only feasible path. At present, Barça is very close to the introduction of the four goals, which is a catalyst for Xavi to rebuild Barca, and there is no faster way to get Barca out of the trough.
The closest he could have joined was Uruguayan striker Edgar Cavani, who could have joined Barca in the summer window, but he decided to stay with Cristiano Ronaldo to compete for the main position. In fact, Cristiano Ronaldo has continued to score goals and expressed his hope to always start, while Cavani rarely has the opportunity to play and is in a state of injury. The fact that there are basically no balls to play has made Cavani a bit disheartened, and leaving Manchester United is the most urgent choice.
Barca lack a good traditional centre-forward, and Cavani is the most suitable candidate, but if Suarez, who was the same age, was left behind, there is no need to sign Cavani now. According to the latest news, Cavani will negotiate with Manchester United to terminate the contract early and will be able to transfer freely as soon as January 1. Cavani not only gave up the center position to Cristiano Ronaldo, but also sent his beloved number seven shirt, which should not have much nostalgia for Manchester United.
The main reason why Barca can attract Cavani to join is that it can provide a large number of game opportunities and a suitable annual salary. At present, Uruguay is only seventh in the world cup south American qualifiers, but only one point away from fourth-place Colombia, and Cavani naturally hopes to maintain excellent form by participating in the competition and eventually help Uruguay reach the World Cup. Looking at the top giants in football, only Barca has provided him with a chance to play, after all, the only orthodox center Aguero has retired.
Barca is also sincere in terms of annual salary, the first year of the contract can get 3.5 million euros, the 34-year-old Cavani does not need to worry about income. In addition, the second target that Barca are pursuing is Ferran Torres, the 21-year-old talented winger who became the subject of gossip at Barca earlier, and he is basically certain that he will not return to Manchester City, will stay in Spain to continue to recuperate and wait for the day to officially join Barca.
It is reported that the transfer fee negotiations between Barca and Manchester City are now nearing the end, and the difference between the two sides lies in the difference in transfer fees of 4-5 million euros. Generally speaking, this difference is not too big, and It is not expected that Manchester City will give in, but it depends on how Barca match this difference in what form. Basically, Ferran Torres is half a Barca player. This season, he has been plagued by injuries, only 7 appearances, but has contributed 3 goals and 1 assist for Manchester City, with amazing efficiency, and believes that he can become a good player for Barca to plug and play.
The third target That Barca is pursuing is a veteran, not Chilean winger Alexis Sanchez, who is returning to Barca, but pure La Masia centre-back Bartra. The 30-year-old veteran has developed steadily after leaving Barca and is currently firmly at Betis' main centre-back position, and is a big contributor to Betis's third place in La Liga, and recently helped the team keep a clean sheet for Barca. Although he is not a world-class centre-back and the classic scene of being overtaken by Bale is still often mentioned, his ability and form are far superior to Barca's two French parallel lancers, Lenglet and Umtiti.
Barca are already in contact with Baltra, an offer that is generally impossible to refuse, and Baltra has a deep affection for Barca, just like Eric Garcia, who returned to Barca in the summer, and must return to play at Camp Nou whenever he has the opportunity. It is expected that Pique will choose to retire after the season, and Baltra is just suitable for playing pique's veteran role, allowing him to lead the two younger brothers of Araujo and Garcia to grow up as soon as possible, which is believed to be a good reinforcement.
The fourth to be pursued by Barca is the striker Haaland, a sharpsman who can single-handedly change the team's strength. If Borussia Dortmund had not had Haaland, they would have been in the middle of the Bundesliga right now. The 21-year-old Haaland should no longer stay in the Bundesliga, the Premier League and La Liga are higher stages, the most important thing is that he has never said which team he wants to join, but his agent Rayola is the first to contact Barca.
Barca management has met with Laiola and has both taken the lead and proposed conditions for Laiola to make concessions, such as lower commissions. Barca have to meet the salary package conditions for the introduction of Haaland, that is, to deal with the big contracts of Coutinho, Neto and Umtiti, which is theoretically feasible. If Barca want to rebuild, Haaland is the core of reconstruction, and Xavi does not want to see Haaland and Mbappe form a double striker at Real Madrid, so he must ask Barca to take Haaland with all his strength.
If Barca successfully completes the introduction of the above four players, combined with the outbreak of new stars such as Abd, Fati, Pedri, Nico, Garvey, etc., with the top veterans such as Alves, Busquets and Alba, and continues to rely on the Mesozoic De Jong and Ter Stegen, this Barca is still full of hope. The post-Messi era of Barça is gradually completing the formation in the hands of Xavi, perhaps the really competitive Barça can return to Messi, Alves can return to Barca, why can't Messi?
