The Barça: "Have money for fichar to Coutinho in January"

The general director of the FC Barcelona, Óscar Grau, revealed this Wednesday, during his appearance to present the economic balance of the season 2016-17 and the budget for the season 2017-18, that the Barcelona club is in conditions to tackle signings during this next market of January. It has spoken openly of Philippe Coutinho.

"Have money for fichar to Coutinho or any another player that ask us the technical office", has signalled the general director of the Barça, pronouncing the name of the Brazilian and leaving glimpse that it forms part dand the diary of possible signings of the FC Barcelona, something that is a secret to voices from this past summer.

And it is that the FC Barcelona tried by all the means fichar this past summer to Coutinho, but the Liverpool descolgó asking 200 million euros by the midfield player, a quantity impagable that, as it is natural, the Barcelona denied to credit.

Coutinho, the big pretence of the Barça

This next winter the situation could change and Coutinho could land in the Barça by a figure ostensiblemente lower. However, Óscar Grau has left clear that, "so that they arrive ones, would have to go out others", although leaving clear that the signings and the drops "no necessarily would have to produce now, also in summer because the budget that present is of all the season".

In brief, it seems that the FC Barcelona has very clear that this winter, if Ernesto Valverde and the technical office consider it necessary, the club will attend to the market of signings to reinforce even more the staff culé, especially of centre of the field upwards.
