When we're getting linked to Wirtz all the time only for Bayern to snap him up before us

To be honest, in the case of German players Bayern rightfully has upper hand even ahead of Barca and Madrid.

Wirtz wont be rejecting anything as a 'Barca fan'.

He has said himself he was a Messi fan and not a Barca fan really.

Probably better than Gavi now but zero chance club sells Gavi for him.

Wirtz guy is strictly midfielder or more like Havertz?

Maybe the plan for 2024 is to move De Jong at DM and get Wirtz as box to box. If you play with 4 midfielders, you need some top ones. Wirtz, De Jong, Gavi, Pedri would be such a quartet.

More in general... why buy an obscenely expensive player to compete with Gavi and Pedri? Makes zero sense.

Why do Real Madrid want to sign Bellingham when they have Fede Valverde, Camavinga and Tchouameni?

He's better than Gavi anyway and even if they're comparable why don't you want another great midfielder at the club so we don't have to play some mid-table player when we have to rotate?

Because I have seen how that went with Fabregas? Also I wouldn't trade Gavi for Wirtz in a million years. Depth is good, but not when you have to put prestige transfers or top talents on the bench.

Real doesn't interest me, but I don't think any sane club would plan with Camavinga, Tchouameni and Valverde in a midfield 3. Bellingham (a bit less so) and Wirtz would make sense for them.

Need the legs and brains of a FDJ in there to let the likes of Pedri go to work and compliment him and moving FDJ to DM while he can play very well there is limiting and playing out of position one of the few world class players Barca have.

Barca wont sign Wirtz when have Gavi wouldnt think. Even though is for now better but Gavi is 18 and developing and they will wait for that.

If Gavi is at this level in 2/3 years there would need to be decisions. He isnt better than many other mids in La Liga this season.

Hmm... everyone forgets that Busi is still a starter and is on his last legs at 35? We need to sing a starting midfielder either way.

Gavi gets crazy underrated here :facepalm:

I expect the same jump from Gavi that Pedri did from 18 to 20. Just watch a full compilation of his game yesterday.

Busi hopefully leaves but always told you Xavi rates him as the best going and wasnt him just paying lip service.

Probably Barca try to reignite that Kessie/Brozovic swap in summer and take back Nico.

Dounbt very much and big signings.
