With the step of the time, the Barcelona has gone defining which were the positions that it was necessary to reinforce this summer, arriving to the conclusion that, with the arrival of an attacker, two midfield players and a defender, the staff would be even more powerful the next course in all the competitions, when having a more balanced team and with a good quantity of variants.
After the official presentations of Clément Lenglet and Arthur Melo, the two first signings of the FC Barcelona of face to the next campaign, Abidal, Plans, Safe and the distinct members of the technical office already work in the planning of the next signings of the Barcelona, as well as of a 'Operation Gone out' that for the moment is stagnated, to fault of traspasos and cessions confirmed.
Antoine Griezmann was in principle the elected for the forward, but after his refusal the Barça has changed the initial plans and, instead of spending the greater part of the budget veraniego in an attacker, will do it in reinforcing the centre of the field because of the course of Andrés Iniesta, and also in the arrival of an attacker of a profile more 'low' to level mediático.
It will look for therefore to an attacker of guarantees, but to an affordable price, that can contribute from the bench to the orders of Ernesto Valverde that it will give him opportunities of game so that it compete with Dembélé and do also improve to the Frenchman. Willian Borges, of Chelsea, would be the player chosen to tackle said function in the Barça.
The FC Barcelona, in any case, keeps a dilated diary of possibilities, and in the next days will decide the priorities. In the meantime, in the centre of the field the aim is that it incorporate to Adrien Rabiot, for of this way cover the gap that has left Paulinho.
Pjanic, Eriksen and Thiago Alcántara are some of the names that also have sounded, although the most likely is that any of them finish landing in the Barça, centred in profiles more resembled Rabiot, N'Zonzi, Kanté and company, to endow to the centre of the field of more consistency.
The Barça also works in the exits
Simultaneously, the technical office of the FC Barcelona is working also in speeding up the chapter of exits. Players like Aleix Vidal, Paco Alcácer and André Gomes have all the ballots to do the cases in very little time. The Barcelona wants to ingresar money by them, in addition to by other footballers like Rafinha, Munir and Marlon. There is a lot for doing... But already it is working in this.
