This is how Barça would like to do business with Ivan Rakitic

Ivan Rakitic is one of the footballers that have more numbers to abandon the FC Barcelona the next season. The Barcelona club, that in the last seasons has tried to carry out a relief generacional in the centre of the field with signings like the ones of Arthur Melo or Frenkie of Jong, pretends to give exit to several footballers, being the Croat one of the transferibles.

We are speaking of a footballer that carries a lot of seasons being important for the FC Barcelona. It went it in the stage in which Luis Enrique was the trainer of the first team and went it also in the two first campaigns of Ernesto Valverde. Nevertheless, in the present course all has changed: from the beginning, the Txingurri separated him of the titularity and, after the arrival of Quique Setién, his role of secondary has not changed.

Given the circumstances, the FC Barcelona will put to Rakitic in the market and will sell it if it arrives an offer that reach the 20 million euros, a figure that considers adapted so much by his age (fulfilled the 32 years this same month of March) as by contractual situation (finishes his links like culé in June of 2021, in little more than a natural year).

If they fulfil these economic expectations by the traspaso of Rakitic, will be a round business in Barcelona key. In summer of 2014, the FC Barcelona paid to the Seville 18 million euros more other three in variables by the incorporation of the Croatian. It carries, therefore, five seasons and average dressing the elastic culé and has offered to the Barça what definitely are the best years of his carrer to level futbolístico.

In all these campaigns, Rakitic has been a key piece that has reached the 299 official meetings contested, all this to conquer 13 titles. Therefore, in spite of that the Barça could sell him does a pair of summers by 90 million euros to Paris Saint-Germain, will be able to take out six years after his purchase exactly the same quantity that paid by him. Of course, as we have said, having benefited of his best years.

Coin of change?

Another of the possible options for the future of Rakitic is that it can form part of an operation of exchange by another player. The Croatian midfield player has poster in Europe and likes so much to Paris Saint-Germain as to the Inter of Milan, by what no descarta that it form part of the payment of the traspaso by Neymar or Lautaro Martínez. The Seville or the Juventus of Turín also are interested in him.
