Since they arrived at the club back in September, Barcelona have been impressed by Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo. Both have bought into the club, and its hierarchy are very pleased with how they have been performing.
This is more the case of Cancelo, who has thrived since joining on a season-long loan from Manchester City. Understandably, Barcelona are keen to make his deal a permanent one, and it’s also the case of Felix, who is only with the Catalans until the end of the season too.
The expectation has been that Barcelona will try to sign both players again next summer, but MD now say that these operations could be brought forward to January. This could be done because club bosses anticipate that both players will continue to get better and better, which could raise their prices.
Barcelona value Felix at €40m, where Atletico Madrid want in excess of €80m. In order to avoid paying too much, a player-plus-cash deal could also be pursued, although it begs the question as to who could be included. In Cancelo’s case, Man City reportedly want €25m, whereas Barcelona are only prepared to pay €15m.
Barcelona are banking on the fact that both players only want to sign for them, which does look to be the case at this stage. However, they are negotiating from a position of weakness (because of their financial woes), so they could find it difficult to get Man City and Atleti to come down to their price.
Barca becoming a bigger and bigger joke. Sad to see a once great club reduced to such a sad low level.
Please don’t believe or get sucked in by what you see or read on here or any other media outlet or website for that matter most of the time it’s a complete load of crap used to sell papers and get likes,the everyday sensible football fans know that the only way barca are getting both Joaos again for next season is like this year if they can agree to another loan for both that’s it plain and simple.
Regarding barca becoming a bigger and bigger joke that’s a bit rich coming from a supporter whose club with all due respect were basically non existent in the footballing world until they were bought over by and funded by an abu dhabi group lmao and even more laughable when you consider pep guardiola,txiki begiristain,ferran soriano all from that big joke of a club fc barcelona and all having big important key roles at a certain man city ????????? imagine that 🤣😂 you would do very well to remember and think next time you start mouthing off about other clubs mate.
Every club in world football has its problems on and off the pitch and anyone that thinks otherwise is lying or just being plain ignorant,fc barcelona is currently in a bad state on and off the pitch admittedly yes thats a fact but they will try to fix it themselves and if that means selling off assets of the club ect,playing extra friendlies to generate extra income to do that because of an incumbent previous president bartemou then so be it,laporta and his board is not perfect by any means but they are there to change things both on and off the pitch at fc barcelona and thats exactly what they are currently doing imo it will take time it’s not an overnight fix but they will get there i have no doubt,as the saying goes if you don’t change anything yourself then nothing changes at all.
The Premier League allege Man City didn’t comply with UEFA’s financial fair play rules over a five-year period. They also allege that Man City have not fully co-operated with the Premier League’s investigation. This is a very serious matter for Man City.
A little reminder to all man city fans who think their club is squeaky clean 😂🤣
