Barcelona president Joan Laporta has come out to speak about the club’s transfer plans. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the club will not make further signings this summer, and Rashford would be the final addition to the first team roster ahead of the 2025-26 season.
He added that FCB will look to La Masia to complete the squad’s missing pieces like Barcelona has always done.
His words, “In principle, there will be no more signings. We have a squad and the coach wants to make additions to the first team dynamic with players from Barca Atletic (the reserve team), but additions are not expected at the moment. We will try to avoid any painful exit. I’m not going to specify players because they are all Barca players and we are all delighted with them, but there will be certain adjustments, because there are too many players in some positions, replicated, and something will have to be done. This is already at the discretion of the coach and Deco.”
WOW.
Futbol Club Barcelona is a professional football club based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, that competes in La Liga, the top flight of Spanish football.
Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, Catalan, German, and English footballers led by Joan Gamper, the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture and Catalanism, hence the motto “Més que un club” (“More than a club”). Unlike many other football clubs, the supporters own and operate Barcelona. It is the third-most valuable sports team in the world, worth $5.51 billion, and the world’s fourth richest football club in terms of revenue, with an annual turnover of €582.1 million.
The official Barcelona anthem is the “Cant del Barça”, written by Jaume Picas and Josep Maria Espinàs. Barcelona traditionally play in dark shades of blue and garnet stripes, hence nicknamed Blaugrana.
In March 2021, Lionel Messi overtook Xavi’s record of 767 games played for the club, and presently has made 778 official appearances in all competitions, while also holding the record for the most appearances in La Liga matches for Barcelona, with 520.
