Barça's Transfers and Rumors

[raskolnikov]

Isco is a very good player and would have been a great fit for us.

He is also a clear Barca fanboy like so many of their players.
Remember how last year everyone talked about him among the likes of Neymar/Götze/Pogba as potential ballon do'r winners in the upcoming years, now he is basically forgotten quite a bit already, he will be one of those talents that get ruined by Madrid, especially if they bring James.

Italian club AC Milan are reportedly interested in Barcelona right back Dani Alves (31) and midfielder Alex Song (26). [md]

I think Isco could be the heir of Iniesta.

 

[Hamzah]

We have Halilovic, Rafinha and Suarez, don't think we need an Iniesta replacement. What we need is a guy that can control the flow of the game.

I think Isco could be the heir of Iniesta.

We have our youngsters, madrid rejects are not needed.

Bartomeu (president): "We will certainly sign more than one defender this summer." [catalunya radio]

 

[ZenI]

He is Zidane's love child so I really really really doubt any miracle would bring him here

Zidane might be on his way to Juve and Varane is not all that (but I certainly would pick him 10/10 times over Marq though...)

SPORT about the defenders Barcelona is planning to buy

• - Mathieu, Cuadrado and Marquinhos remain Enquire's priorities.
• - Mathieu should be the first to arrive.
• - Barcelona tried to lower Mathieu's fee with no avail.
• - Barcelona decided to pay the release clause fee.
• - About Marquinhos, PSG seems dead set to not let him go.
• - But they have signed TS and DL so a transfer can happen.
• - Barcelona thinks Marquinhos can perfectly complement bartra, Pique and Mathieu.
• - Juan Cuadrado will be recruited as RB despite being a former winger.
• - Cuadrado will a new version of Dani Alves.
• - Dani Alves has decided to stay at the club.
• - But if Cuadrado's deal fails there's Montoya.

Also, SPORT's writer Joan Vehils posted an opinion on the matter:

• - Luis Suarez, Rakitic, Bravo and the return of Rafinha and Deulofeu were Enquire's wishes fulfilled so far.
• - There are still 3 more players to sign: Mathieu, Marquinhos and Cuadrado.
• - Those 3 players are barcelona main objective.
• - Mathieu is almost done.
• - It's complicated to negociate with PSG because they are a rich club.
• - But it appears Marquinhos will press PSG to force his way out, so it will make negociations easier.
• - The club will have to make a choice about Cuadrado: to splash money on him or not.
• - Once those signings will be done, Zubizarreta will have fullfilled his role.
• - Never a coach provided as much excitement as Enrique.

next one is shitty marquinhos, who wasn't a starter at psg, and isn't experienced

Don't worry, marquinhos is still not for sale according to PSG and french medias.

So no shitty marquinhos, rejoyce!

We are going to sign at least one more defender so calm the fuck down. Mathieu is for depth and stability, he can also cover 2 positions.

The other defender will certainly be of bigger caliber.

 

[Egert]

You really ought to stop hating so much on Mathieu. We have been crying and whining for years for CB's, and the morons upstairs finally did something about it if not more. Give him a chance. He's going to be in our shirt.

+1. Everyone are not very happy about him but he has been very good for Valencia and I think he can help us couple of seasons.

 

[shogunruax]

why would we not go for hummels?

Barcelona are considering Vertonghen move, they think Manchester United ahead on Hummels. [AS]

 

[SpawN]

sell song and promote sergi samper

 

[Poor_Sunyol]

+1. Everyone are not very happy about him but he has been very good for Valencia and I think he can help us couple of seasons.

Ditto.

What do you guys think about Fabian Schar?
