Last call in the transfer market
FC Barcelona find themselves at a crucial crossroads as the end of the transfer window approaches. With several positions in the squad requiring attention, the club is particularly focused on resolving the situation of Dani Olmo ahead of the expected clash against Rayo Vallecano.
The urgency of signing Dani Olmo
The board, led by Joan Laporta, is working tirelessly to ensure that Olmo can be part of the team in the next match. The image of a star player relegated to the stands, as happened in the recent match against Athletic Club, is something that Barça wants to avoid at all costs.
Options on the table
To facilitate the registration of Dani Olmo, Barça is considering various strategies. One of the most promising is an agreement with WhitBIT, which could inject fresh capital into the club by becoming a shareholder in Barça Vision. However, this is not the only option.
Personal endorsement and sales of players
The board is also considering the possibility of presenting a personal guarantor to settle debts demanded by La Liga. This step is considered an extreme measure, as the club prefers to generate the necessary salary space by selling players such as Mika Faye, Alex Valle, Vitor Roque and Clément Lenglet.
An agreement that could change everything
As Barca grapple with these challenges, a deal with Nike could be the key to solving its short-term financial problems. Negotiations have been ongoing for months, and a 10-year contract could make the Blaugrana shirt the most lucrative in the world.
Strengthening the workforce
Hoping to comply with financial fair play regulations, Barca are also exploring the signing of new talent. Federico Chiesa and Marc Pubill have emerged as viable options, with a cost that should not exceed 15 million euros.
Expectations and challenges
As the final hours of the transfer window approach, the pressure on Barça’s board is intensifying. With criticism of the current management, the team will have to maneuver shrewdly to close this chapter in the best possible way, ensuring that the future of the club is on the right track.
