Barcelona, struggling to retain the Spanish championship, has calculated in advance to strengthen their squad next summer. For the Catalan giants, this time it's not just about desire - the club plans to act realistically, taking into account their financial situation. In short, "dreams are big, calculations are even bigger."
For this reason, the club's management intends to prioritize experienced players who could become free agents in the summer. Because in such an option, there will be no large transfer costs, and the main issue will be the correct preparation of the contract and salary package. Barcelona has been forced to be very cautious at this point in recent years.
According to reports, several big names have been added to Barcelona's watchlist. Among them are Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva, Liverpool central defender Ibrahim Konaté, Bournemouth player Marcos Senezi, and Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka. The publication The Touchline announced this on its X social media page.
Of course, these names don't mean "they'll work out tomorrow." But it's not just interest - it shows exactly what Barcelona will emphasize in the summer. For example, Konaté and Senesi increase competition in the defensive line, Goretzka adds physical strength and experience in the center, and Bernardo Silva can give the team a new breath in game acceleration, combination, and creativity. For fans, just reading such a list is a pleasure: you "imagine" the lineup and envision the next season in advance.
The source notes that the Catalans plan to fully comply with the 1:1 financial rule in La Liga to take concrete steps. In simple terms, this rule means that the club has the opportunity to make new expenditures in the amount it saves or earns. As Barcelona has been struggling with financial problems for several years, acquiring new players is not enough - they need to be properly transferred from the La Liga roster. Therefore, every step must be carefully planned.
In short, this time Barcelona wants to advance to the championship not with romanticism, but with mathematics. If things go according to the 1:1 rule, there could be more interesting scenarios for the Catalans in the summer market. And the fans have one task: to support the team until the end of the current season. Because both big transfers and big victories begin with the result on the field.
