The Barça team draws up a plan at the express wish of Xavi Hernández
Xavi Hernandez sends a lot on the noble floor of the Camp Nou. So much so that he FC Barcelona begins to see possible to retain Ousmane Dembele and at the same time sign Bernard Silva. Despite the fact that Mateu Alemany had lost patience with the French player and had looked for a substitute.
But the information is increasingly pointing in the direction that Xavi wants. Mateu Germany had reached an agreement with the Brazilian raphinhanatural replacement of Dembele. But the price of the transfer goes up a lot. Minimum was going to go to 50 million euros. However, despite everything, Mateu was going to sign him.
Xavi paralyzes Dembélé’s departure
When everything seemed done, Xavi himself entered the operation. He has personally called Dembélé insisting on the Frenchman’s desire to see him next year at Barça. Xavi is so convincing that the French winger has blocked the negotiation with Chelsea, the only team that offers him more money than FC Barcelona.
We already know that on the one hand there is liquidity to be able to sign, where only Barcelona and not Thebes rule. This means that there is no control to pay for a transfer. Simply if the Barça coffers can pay for it, it can be carried out. Of course, any transfer or sale affects the salary limit. That is where financial engineering is needed.
Bernardo Silva will cost 80 kilos to FC Barcelona
But at FC Barcelona they had already prepared money for the transfer of Raphinha. Money that would be saved if Dembélé finally remains. If we add this money saved to the sale of Frenkie de Jong, we would already have enough liquidity to face the 80 million that Manchester City is asking for Bernardo Silva.
Xavi considers that Bernardo Silva and Dembélé will give this qualitative leap to FC Barcelona. Along with Pedri and Ansu, they would be 4 very unbalanced players in one on one. There is money to take on the transfers, as long as Manchester United reaches 80 million for Frenkie. Enrolling them will be another story… departures are urgent. The first will be Lenglet.
