“A year ago there were one who laughed at us for all that of the Burofax and 8-2, but look how they are now, without money and without Messi.”
It is the sentence to a former director of Barcelona who, despite the “ideological rivalry” with Joan Laporta, says he is “suffering from the beautiful” with what he is seeing.
Barça decided not to accept the 275 million euros of the CVC fund that would have relieved their coffers, at least in the short term.
The club has just been spent 1.8 million before the deterioration of concrete from a rickety Camp.
And the partners, whose disaffection is increasing, only requested 15,000 of the 22,000 entries that corresponded to them for the premiere of this Sunday before the Royal Society after 17 months without stepping on the stadium.
And now that?
One of the main reasons for which Laporta maintained the trust in Ronald Koeman was the inability to pay his dismissal.
Although the coach, who already had to deal with the Twisted Gesture of Messi, the dismissal of Luis Suárez and the serious injury of Ansu Fati, continues with his ungrateful club work.
They came to promise that, in addition to Memphis Depay (his great request), Sergio Agüero (presidential signing that is injured until November), Eric García and Emerson Royal would also reach new reinforcements.
Especially for the offensive zone (Messi scored 30 goals last league).
Koeman wants to get rid of Braithwaite in exchange for signing, who knows if impossible, from another front.
In case, he has enlisted Albanian King Manoj.
While Umtiti or Pjanic live from the Boba soup and with Busquets and Jordi Alba still renegoting its salary conditions, who has broken which Robin Hood is Piqué.
A “substantial downgrade” from his salary, according to the club, in addition to the postponement of an important part of payments receivable once concludes his sports career, took Barça to register Memphis, Eric García and King Manaj.
The Emerson lane was already on the list because the Barça compumed property with Betis.
With Agüero, injured, there is no hurry.
The panorama, desolate, allows to expand the look.
Although it has to be to look at one end that the great audience knew little more than a month ago.
It is the Austrian of 18 Yusuf Demir.
The Technical Secretariat of Barcelona, after following him the last two years, managed to give him the Rapid of Vienna to give it to him for a season, with a purchase option of 10 million.
Demir can be enlisted without problems by Koeman since he has a file of the subsidiary.
The second team, in addition, offers other solutions.
Especially the 19-year-old Mediocentro Nico González, son of Fran, former legend of sport; or that of the talented GAVI, a summer sensation of the 17-year-old Barça from the interior areas.
From Ilaix Moriba, Ojito right of Koeman in the second stretch of the season, nothing wants to know the club for his refusal to renew.
Follow his punishment.
Condemned Pedri to continue squeezing his legs, injured Ter Stegen at least until mid-September, with the doubt of whether Coutinho has a remedy, and arranged Griezmann to assume a leadership that there has been no trace, Barça takes up an unbearable transition.
