While Nico would be great groomed as a CDM I feel like hes got so much more to give than just play CDM role.

He isn't in the right place, unfortunately for him. Difficult to be a champion in a limited team like that.

I only see both De Jong's being moved on - Frenkie, as great as I see him (Especially under Xavi) I only see him being sold to generate revenue out of need considering midfield depth at club
I would not, however, use him as part of a player deal to bring in someone like Sterling - cash only

If we sell FDJ and buy fecking Sterling.. I am done
Dont think that it would be a good idea.
Still curious to see him play in an more stable and less anarchal system, and i'm willing to see how Xavi will use him even if I don't expect miracle.
What's strange is that i'm not so afraid to sell a player if he still has value but i'm more afraid about who we'll bu to replace him

I hope that won't be how a deal goes down, not only because I am not a proponent of adding Sterling but mainly because we should generate revenue in sales to fund big acquisitions - at best, they should be distinct deals. Let's not forget Raheem is also on nearly 400k/weekly wages too
However, I feel it is inevitable FDJ will be sold - sooner than later. With the emergence of the midfield players we have, there is sporting logic to it too. I was overjoyed by Frenkie's acquisition as I saw him as a generational talent but we have quality depth now that are mostly from La Masia

Considering we have yet to see the best version of Frenkie, I don't see how even an aging Busquets who is also a Captain would not be preferred. We'll see how these next 6-8 months go under Xavi and see what shakes out, no one other than Pep will know how to get the best out of this midfield

FDJ is one of the few players they can generate cash for and in one position have numbers.
It has got to point they either need to build midfield for him or take that cash and get wages off books as not best scenario for anyone.
When see Xavis tactics on his masterclass video there is not a clear role really that FDJ in that set up where would get best from him.
If can use the cash to improve other areas of team lacking more and let FDJ got to somewhere that suits him more could be best all round.
Maybe Man Utd as they have poor midfield and then Ten Hag is an obvious choice in the summer as well.
FDJ is the best midfielder and would be better than Busquets by far at DM but it is not a straight choice between two when one can get a decent fee for.

Yeah,
makes too much sense for this club.I say give Frenkie a run under Xavi for 1 full season, and if he doesn't up his performances playing DM or interior then sell him. But not like this.

More chance Busi being extended and still playing for Barca at 38 than them choosing FDJ over him due to ability alone.
