Lending players will not get more money than selling them, even now Barcelona still has a lot of loan players from several clubs, because maybe if you buy then it will not be able to especially with short-term and long-term debt that is still high.
What I know is that the reduction in player salaries was done in order not to burden the club.
The financial crisis that Barcelona is experiencing requires them to carry out a series of options to build squad strength, we have even seen that Barcelona has to take advantage of free transfers and loans to recruit players. It is true that Barcelona is burdened with huge debts and even finds it difficult to cover the salaries of its players. Despite the crisis that Barcelona is experiencing, I feel I have to appreciate this club, where they can remain on the winning path even though they are suffering from a lack of money.
Xavi succeeded in leading Barcelona and proved capable of providing tough competition in La Liga, even managing to win it last season despite the crisis they were experiencing. Madrid, which is said to be a fairly financially stable club, failed last season, in this regard I think Xavi should be appreciated.
To cover their financial crisis, Barcelona made a good choice in recruiting players with no team status and also loan players, and what is more interesting is when the players they bring in in 2 ways are quite successful and make a big contribution to the team. In selling players I also think they are doing a good move, because they still retain players who have high market value, in fact, they can do to get more money. But Xavi realized when they did that it would make them weaker and it was a wise choice I think.
Lamine Yamal is rumored to be next generation of young Messi but I am not sure enough that the kid will be stronger but at least give confidence to Xavi to build his talent.
Yamal is a really great wonderkid. There are many records he has broken while playing for Barca and Spain. And the most extraordinary thing is being the youngest goalscorer for Barcelona and Spain. After this there will be a big burden on Yamal's shoulders. At a very young age, the wonderkid has to bear big expectations from the whole world. I'm not sure he will be the next Messi because for me Yamal has to really prove his quality over several seasons. It is very important to maintain consistency and physical fitness so that you don't get injured easily. But I believe Yamal will become one of the legends in the history of world football.
For a young player like him who still has a long way to go, it will be a challenge for him to stay at a high level and even improve. Because it's not uncommon for me to see a player who shines at a young age but when he reaches a mature age his name begins to fade for several reasons. Injuries, declining performance, and bad habits will be a shadow during his development. That's what he has to take care of, maybe injury is a factor where it can't be predicted with certainty, but it's the lifestyle that must be strictly and seriously maintained. Because even if it doesn't seem to be directly related to sports, it is a habit that has a big influence on the course of his career.
