Barça’s objective in the transfer market
FC Barcelona has the player Joshua Kimmich in its portfolio as one of its main objectives to reinforce the defensive pivot position. This interest is not new, since in the past former player Xavi Hernández also considered it an option for that demarcation. Now, under the direction of Hansi Flick, the club has given its approval to this proposal.
Positive conversations and feelings
FC Barcelona has already held talks with Joshua Kimmich and the feelings have been very positive. The player has exchanged opinions with both Xavi and Flick, which demonstrates the mutual interest in a possible incorporation to the club.
Kimmich’s desire to leave Bayern
From the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich is trying to renew Joshua Kimmich’s contract, but the player has rejected all renewal proposals. He has informed the German club of his decision not to continue beyond his current contract and to seek a new adventure in another competition.
The price and option of Ronald Araújo
The main obstacle for FC Barcelona is the starting price established by Bayern, which amounts to 60 million euros. However, the Catalan club has an interesting option to address this situation. Ronald Araújo, Uruguayan central defender, is one of the players that Barça wishes to retain, but is also aware that selling him could significantly improve the club’s financial situation and facilitate the incorporation of Kimmich. Therefore, the possibility of including Araújo in a possible exchange operation is raised along with an additional sum of 20 million euros.
Hansi Flick’s final decision
The decision to accept this proposal falls on Hansi Flick, who must evaluate whether he considers this operation essential for FC Barcelona, despite giving up one of the main figures in his squad. This possible departure of Araújo would not only affect the coach and the fans, but also young talents like Gavi and Pedri, who have grown up with Araújo in the post-Messi era and value his contribution to the team.
The future of FC Barcelona
This possible exchange marks a turning point at FC Barcelona, where economic decisions are shaping the future of the team and its key players. The club is in a difficult financial situation, but is looking for alternatives to strengthen its squad and compete at the highest level.
