Breaking : Barcelona’s superstar who refuses to play with Messi and begs to be sold
Barcelona continues working on sales to be in a position to finalize the signing of Lionel Messi. The Blaugrana club must generate several million and release the salary mass in order to comply with the Financial Fair Play. In this context, the board of directors drew up a list of 11 footballers who are willing to lose, but now another has been added of their own free will.
According to the newspaper Sport, those targeted to leave are Jordi Alba, Clément Lenglet, Sergiño Dest, Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, Samuel Umtiti, Franck Kessié, Abde Ezzalzouli, Nico González, Álex Collado and Pablo Torre. However, Jules Koundé raised his hand and warned that he wants to listen to offers in the transfer market that is coming.
The French defender dazzled all of Europe in Seville and Barcelona ended up signing him in July 2022 in exchange for 50 million euros. Back in Catalonia, Xavi Hernández started using him as a right-back and it is precisely for this reason that Koundé wants to leave: he does not feel comfortable and wants to return to play in his original position.
60 million that would be of great help for FC Barcelona
Although Barça was not considering leaving him, the truth is that his hypothetical sale would be a great breath of air for the club’s coffers. In addition, the culé team already has advanced negotiations with Juan Foyth, Villarreal’s Argentine defender, for the right-back position. In this context, Barcelona could undertake the signing of the former Estudiantes de La Plata, currently valued at 25 million euros according to the Transfermarkt portal.
