Laporta yesterday in his TV3 - interview: Masa salarial (salaries + amortization) has already been reduced from 110% of sales(revenue) to 80%. The aim is to be at 65-70% as soon as possible. He paid compliments to Mateu Alemany and CEO Ferran Reverter. It was a difficult task and they and...

That's on the club too. Should have let him go when City apparently was interested in signing him instead of handing him over that expensive contract extension in 2018. He was already 30 back then and lots of that was due to nostalgia, not future potential. Crazy business to give him a new...

Physique isn't everything, especially in youth. No one expects Garcia to win a direct duel against Lukaku, but when you are playing at an elite level your body should be on an elite level too. Garcia has limits due to his height, but he doesn't look like he is at his personal best at all. He...

There will be room for new salaries without getting rid of them for 2 reasons: -'Masa salarial' (salaries + amortisations) was lowered by a significant amount. Griezmann alone has burdened the salary cap with 60M. The club did some extraordinary amortisations of useless players, so they won't...

Number 10 was worn by our best La Masia talent. Now that Messi is gone, Ansu is the best La Masia talent in the squad. If anyone deserves to wear it, Ansu is.

Power play and leak from Laporta to show the world that the club could afford the buy-out of Haaland. :boss:

Premier League clubs are the favourites to sign him. I'm pretty sure Haaland doesn't want Ligue 1 at this stage of his career, but PSG unquestionably will raise the money asked by Raiola in agent fees, salary etc. with their offers. Mbappe joining Madrid might be a chance for Barca as Haaland...

Maybe this has more to do with what happens to Saul. Chelsea has an option to buy him for 35M in 2022. I guess that's the only way Atletico can afford Griezmann next summer without any other major sales (which you can't "plan"). It's less a question of what are the benefits, but rather of...

Yes, that's how I see it too. Atletico has to buy him, but it is up to them if they do so in 2022 or 2023. From a bookkeeping perspective it would be better in 2023, from a perspective of signing reinforcements we'll need the money already next summer (although we could use it already as most...

Can't wait to see him debuting against Bayern. :rockon: :worthy:

An old saw says: If you are not good enough to win La Liga, gift Atletico one of your strikers so Real Madrid can't win it either. :bartomeu:

Aguero, Luuk, Braithwaite - FC Backup-striker.

Complaining was a bit exaggerating from my side, but some weren't too happy. https://www.barcaforum.com/showthread.php/4216-Edinson-Cavani/page55

And people in here complained about the Cavani-rumours. :lol:

Imagine you take a wage-cut and the club signs Luuk De fucking Jong. :lol:

Memphis and Frenkie are the best-performing players at the club currently. I'd like to welcome more Dutch players at the club as they have a history of being great for Barca, but Luuk De Jong is none of them.

I was glad when the club brought him back as some serious competition for Dest and a defensively more solid option. I'm not really impressed by Dest, but like Emerson is he is still very young and needs time to develop. I agree that players need time and if you believe in them you should at...

All of those rumours about a new striker are just rumours to satisfy Koeman. "We tried, but it wasn't possible". If you look at the club's activities on the market it is pretty clear that they want to clear the books as much as they can. Releasing Messi, devaluing some washed-up players in...
