Calendar of FC Barcelona

The market of signings already has begun and the teams move index cards to reinforce his staff. It is a very atypical summer by the financial crisis that live the clubs in the middle of the pandemia of the coronavirus and the estragos that this has had in the economy of the different entities, the FC Barcelona and Real Madrid between them. However, it is not an obstacle so that the 'big' already are in war to do with traspasos key.

Although it is true the Barça is in a moment very delicate, in the middle of the renewal/signing of Leo Messi and the hard task to adapt his staff to the limit salarial of face to the next season, the reality is that the Barcelona group keeps activated his radar in research of the stars that there is in the market to reinforce his changing room and have 'bumped' with his eternal rival: the Real Madrid.

The two 'big' of the Spanish football are after the track of players that have 'exploded' with The Red in this Eurocopa and keep attentive to his situations with his respective clubs. Between the interests of the two, as it has informed , would be Dani Elm, Fabián Ruíz and Pablo Sarabia, three footballers in the last years have showed his potential and that, with the selection, has tested that are to the best level, although they are not 'fixed' for Luis Enrique.

It is not a secret quand the Barça has been after the track of Fabián Ruíz from does some years but the Naples keeps firm not to leave him leave. The ones of the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona have priced to the midfield player in some 60 million euros and do not go to accept discounts or barters by one of his big stars. Florentino Pérez also is attentive to the footballer of 25 years.

Regarding Dani Elm, the two clubs have been interested in his index card by his big exert in the RB Leipzig. The culés have a 'advantage' because the mediocentro offensive played in The Masia from the nine years until the 16. The case is that it is a player that has 'exploded' under the orders of Julian Nagelsmann and has enamoured to average Europe: it is very versatile (can play by the left or right), dangerous in the offensive transitions and with technical resources. The one of Terrassa knows how improve his intelligent movements, speed and determination in the last metres.

'Theft' to the PSG?

The Paris Saint-Germain is one of the enemies of the Barça and Madrid in question of signings. It is a club that already has them 'stolen' signings (like the one of Wijnaldum) or players to the Spaniards and now want to give him back the played, further of Kylian Mbappé and the dream of the madridistas in doing with his traspaso, this summer or the next.

The true is that the Barça and Madrid are slopes of Pablo Sarabia, extreme of the Parisian group. It had been one of the doubts in the announcement, but has showed to be a player with a lot of quality, answering positively to the call of Luis Enrique. It is, anyway, a footballer that stands out by his conduccionees and speed.
