Franck Kessie was so disappointed and hurt after becoming one of the victims of Barcelona's bad finances. He has always dreamed of playing with Barcelona since last season and therefore it is hoped that his arrival will last longer to defend the Blaugrana. But things were different after Xavi rarely played and he was sorely disappointed that after signing on a free agent from AC Milan last season then within a year he had been sold by Barcelona to the Saudi league club. It's very clear how Barcelona doesn't appreciate their players just because of the money they always wanted and the sense of loyalty that Franck Kessie wanted to show has now turned into a bitter taste that will be hard to get rid of.

I have discuss about this before that Franck Kessie is failure transfer from Barcelona because since last season he was unable to impress Xavi and his future was questionable because Barcelona want to release him especially Kessie hasn't into Xavi this season plan but indeed Kessie doesn't want to leave because he still wants to prove to Xavi that he still deserves to play with Barcelona but apparently now Barcelona has decide to sell him to Arabian club i think this is the right decision for Barcelona because they really required fresh funds to bought more player to strengthen their squad

Barcelona won the first trophy in this season and they won the game against Tottenham with a 4-2 result while Lewandowski scored the first goal for this team and like always he had a good performance in Barcelona which means Barcelona should be worried about their forwards in this season because they still have a player like Lewandowski. However, this Barcelona still needs to hire players for the next season and I think even if they have Xavi as a good coach but he doesn't have the tool he needs to win the harder games they are going to have in the next season.

I don't agree with you about that. Barcelona needs to care with its financial trouble first rather than try buy more and more players. Barcelona were unable to register some players due to the financial problems. Barcelona needs to sell some players as soon as possible to decrease its salary expenses.
The trophy already won by barcelona against totenham was nothing. Barcelona needs to focus on selling some players like torres, fati or even raphinha if the club wants. Solving the financial trouble is a must for barcelona right now.
This has become the main concern caused by barcelona may not able to register the new player till the end of season if the club is still having financial trouble.
Even la liga president has urged barcelona to raise hundreds millions of money to make sure the club gonna be away from financial trouble. Barcelona is good enough at this moment. The club just needs to register some new players asap before it's too late.
Financial is always becoming the main problem faced by this club very often.

Barcelona can't spend too much money no matter how good their finances are now. Because they are still dealing with FFP. This is even why they are planning to add Cancelo to the squad on loan. They are trying to finish some transfers at low cost at least. If Barcelona were more careful with their expenses in the past the situation could have been more different.

They have spent a lot of money on players such as Dembele, Coutinho and so on and they couldn't send them for a profitable amount later on. They just need to be more careful about this as of now if they don't want to have this result again.

Barcelona don't have enough money because they spent a lot on signing many young players, which is excellent because if you look at Barcelona's team right now, they are among the best in the league, and I can see that they can win the league title again. Barcelona have a lot of young players who are very talented, and if anyone doubts that, look at yesterday's game between Barcelona and Tottenham. Barcelona used many of their new sign young players, and the players did very well. So even though Dembele and Keise are gone, I don't think Barcelona lacked any players right now and they can still do well.

Tottenham is winning them 2-1 during the Joan Hamper Trophy game between Barcelona and them, but before the game is supposed to end, Barcelona uses their young players to defeat Tottenham by winning 4-2. This makes me believe that Barcelona never gives up, even when they are playing them on the field. Although I don't support Barcelona, I am currently really proud of the team since they always give it their all and never give up, regardless of how well their opponents are doing. I have to admit that I have grown to like the Barcelona team.

When La Liga starts, maybe we will see the real performance of Real Madrid, at this time I agree that Ancelotti in friendly matches only tests the feasibility of players and try various experiments. As usual, coaches often do it to try different strategies. Actually you are right, Real Madrid signed Joselu only as a replacement option but if Ancelotti used a 4-3-3 formation maybe Joselu could have played as a centre-forward.
I would prefer to see ancelotti used 3-4-4 scheme instead of another scheme. Joselu needs more time to adapt with its new teammates. It seems like that madrid is still counting on vini in scoring against its opponent. Real madrid can use the opening match as a way to test its performance. There will still be enough time for real madrid to buy the new player before the close of transfer season. Ancelotti shall not force the club to use the current squad if the performance will still be under performance till the opening match of la liga.
Madrid was getting worst result in the pre season match. It will be ashame if the club keeps this performance till the start of the new season. Attacking and defensive lines shall become the main concerns by ancelotti.
Perez already confirmed joselu as the last transfer from madrid but he shall aware if the reality may force madrid to buy more striker and defender.

How do you compare Real Madrid and Barcelona? Real Madrid is a strong team but they currently lack a striker. On the other hand, the Barcelona team I think Xavi is brilliantly organized. After watching the El Clasico, I understood that the Real Madrid team must work brilliantly in finishing.

It should not be forgotten that El Classco is a friendly match. Therefore, it would be wrong to think that Real Madrid suffered a heavy defeat against Barcelona. Almost all the players changed and Barcelona won 3-0 after scoring 2 goals in the last minutes. This is good for them, of course, but I don't know if it's enough for La Liga, which is a long marathon.

I think to blame Barcelona for scoring two of the three goals in the final minutes is not quite correct, it's football. Real Madrid also won their games in the last minutes, remember the legendary Champions League match. Even though it is a friendly match, I think it does not give much except emotions for the fans, plus the opportunity to test new players.
Of course it is. This match was a good opportunity to test the players. Barcelona, ​​who scored two more goals in the last minutes, was the winner, but it should be added that the teams were not fully on the field. If this match had been a League match instead of a friendly match, Real Madrid might have had a different tactical understanding.

If Barcelona's current financial stand can't afford the Portuguese outrightly, they should try and get his services by loaning him from his club because I think he's better than Jeremy Frimpong.

Barcelona want to borrow, but it's not with Man City. Man City want Barcelona to buy permanently. Perhaps this is due to a problem with Guardiola. Guardiola and Cancelo's relationship is not very good. So he was loaned to Bayern Munich last season. The record at Bayern Munich is not too bad for a full-back. Made 1 goal in 21 matches with 6 assists. But the price offered seems too high, and Barcelona have financial problems and many players have not been officially registered to compete.

That is right but I assume they could also do some create accounting like Chelsea has now done it and still get away with it if they really want a player.

Here in an article from the times it is said that Chelsea had to pay a £8.6m fine for breaching some of the FFP rules or for financial irregularities. Thinking about how crazy they went with their transfers, this penalty seems to be tiny and I wonder how that is supposed to keep Chelsea from having irregularities again.

Barcelona has now been far from the spending level of Chelsea. They could take into account even some minor penalty if they needed to.

Kessie was a part of the lineup in most of the matches last season. He wasn't performing badly either. Did Barcelona really want to sell him due to poor finances? Firstly I don't think Barcelona's financial status is in bad condition. They have made big sponsorship signings so they must have a big transfer budget.

Secondly rather than poor finances they have issues with FFP rules when they want to sign new players of their choice. Because of this they need to make some improvement in their budget. But Kessie wasn't exactly one of top earners in the squad though.

I wonder whether Kessie himself wanted to go to Saudi Arabia depending on the salary offer he got from there.

About Barcelona, There is still news if Barcelona continue to look for new players. It looks like they want to borrow Cancelo, but Man City want to sell permanently. But it seems that Barcelona want to borrow him, so Barcelona tried to approach Frimpong from Bayern Leverkusen. But Fripong is also not cheap, Leverkusen want €30 million. Of course this is news that makes me surprised, because many of Barcelona's financial rumors and players that have not been registered until now are still quite a lot and and Barcelona have limited salary cap problems.

More of Cancelo has been seen but no same for Jeremy Frimpong who had another wonderful season beith Bayern Leverkusen. Not just Barcelona, Erik Ten Hag also placed him amongst the players he must get but then Wan Bisakka after the World Cup Competition leveled up his game.
Though I will go for Cancelo over Jeremy Frimpong. Frimpong is a very fast player but Cancelo has worked with Pep Guardiola has a better understanding to the game over Frimpong. The fee might be the little issue since they have financial matters at hand.
Joao Cancelo is one of the best full backs at the moment in my own opinion and that's because of his ability to join attack when his team is attacking and to also fall back defensively when they're defending.
If Barcelona's current financial stand can't afford the Portuguese outrightly, they should try and get his services by loaning him from his club because I think he's better than Jeremy Frimpong.

I think, Barcelona president will definitely look at the current situation of the team to give approval to his manager to bring more potential players that will help the team to maintain a good record in this season, because they need some potential players to assist them to achieve their goal in this season. Barcelona really displayed well in this pre-season match to defeated Tottenham Hotspur 4-2 to alert other teams that they are coming to win many titles in this season, and to defeat those strong teams that stressed them last season.  Based on what they have showcased in this pre-season match, show that Barcelona coach is doing a great job, and he will definitely lead the team to achieve victory in this tournament to receive another honor from the team.


I doubt it very much, Barcelona, due to financial problems, could not attract Messi to the team and for the same reason Dembele left for PSG. I'm sure that Xavi would like to bring new players to the team, but this is not possible at the moment. Maybe the fact that they beat Tottenham doesn't mean how strong Barcelona is, but how weak Tottenham are? And besides, this is just a friendly match and it's too early to draw conclusions, let's wait for the start of the championships, then we will evaluate the teams.
regarding Messi and Dembele leaving Barcelona, in reality Barcelona were not able to provide the salary they wanted so they were forced to leave Barcelona and go to a team that was able to provide the desired salary and on the one hand Dembele went to PSG actually because Barcelona seemed to no longer need it because he has an injury that often occurs when competing. so currently Xavi is looking for a replacement to replace the vacant places from Messi and Dembele.

and for yesterday's match against Spurs, the team did not have strong strength and only relied on Harry Kane. maybe some Spurs fans do not agree with this but the truth is it is. just try without Harry Kane, can Spurs have a good performance in every match. but it is commendable the performance of the Spurs at least still scored 2 scores.
but sorry its not a friendly match but its a Joan Gamper Trophy match and its a great start to the season for Barcelona.

But it seems that Barcelona want to borrow him, so Barcelona tried to approach Frimpong from Bayern Leverkusen. But Fripong is also not cheap, Leverkusen want €30 million.

João Cancelo is an excellent defender. He does not face many injuries. Last season he played with two big teams like Manchester City and Bayern Munich. He is experienced enough. Barcelona will certainly benefit from Cancelo's inclusion in the team. But maybe Manchester City don't want to send João Cancelo on loan. I don't know if Barcelona have the money to buy Cancelo. Jeremie Frimpong is a young player. This is why the Leverkusen management is demanding a very high price for Jeremie Frimpong. I think the Barcelona management will be more interested in Cancelo than Frimpong.


Of course this is news that makes me surprised, because many of Barcelona's financial rumors and players that have not been registered until now are still quite a lot and and Barcelona have limited salary cap problems.

Over the last few seasons we have seen Barcelona in dire financial straits. Even then we saw that Joan Laporta provided the money. And Barcelona bought several players at very high prices. It is expected that Joan Laporta will provide the money this time too if Xavi wants to add his favorite players to the squad.

Too bad Barcelona is still dealing with economic problems. Since they see the team as a symbol of the Basque region, they do not allow it to be sold. While most of the sponsorship agreements have been made, new agreements are not made. So I expect them to be more passive in the transfer for a few years. Especially in this Arab transfer interest, Barcelona may not be the sought-after team with a low salary.

Barcelona won the first trophy in this season and they won the game against Tottenham with a 4-2 result while Lewandowski scored the first goal for this team and like always he had a good performance in Barcelona which means Barcelona should be worried about their forwards in this season because they still have a player like Lewandowski. However, this Barcelona still needs to hire players for the next season and I think even if they have Xavi as a good coach but he doesn't have the tool he needs to win the harder games they are going to have in the next season.

I think, Barcelona president will definitely look at the current situation of the team to give approval to his manager to bring more potential players that will help the team to maintain a good record in this season, because they need some potential players to assist them to achieve their goal in this season.

Barcelona still have a cash problem with the wage bill so when there is an opportunity to improve it would be a shame to let it go.
It is sad to see that after many years Barcelona is not out of their financial crisis. Their poor financial management is making them a sinking ship which used to be overshadowed by their success in the football.  At some point they had a relief which made lovers of the club happy but it was only short term. They need a permanent solution to this issue and the first of which is that, any player they can't currently sign a new contract for should be sold for as much as they can get. Furthermore, they may have to solely avoid paying fees for players to bring the debt down.
Something like that has happened and indeed it is the fault of all parties, especially the officials by letting incompetent rulers manage their finances which makes Barcelona currently misguided.
But on the other hand, it's over and now they have to reorganise and if you look at the latest conditions at this time Barcelona is much better than the previous few seasons. not only in terms of performance but finances are also gradually being improved and that's good. It's just that for now they still need quite a lot of improvement and Xavi is the current hope for Barcelona with the coaching he has.
Either they forgot or how to let things like this continue for years, because we cannot deny that finance is one of the factors that are inseparable from football. Money is a factor that will make the team even better, especially if you can utilize it. It can be said that this is the fault of management, because those who have access to it are all management, and when it comes to this issue coaches and players cannot be linked.
Last season we know they sold almost half of their revenue sources, it was because of the crisis they faced. It seemed like a solution, but it wasn't a solution at all.

Not your keys, not your coins!
It looks like the registration deadline will close on August 13th so Barcelona must hurry up to register new player. I think barcelona is constrained by financial problems, which makes it difficult for them to register their players. Btw there is only a little time left and if this fails to be done I think Barcelona could lose their new players and it will be fatal for them to compete this season.

Previously something like this also happened with Barcelona last season but Barcelona was able to complete registration before Laliga started. I believe that this problem will also be resolved as soon as possible and we will see new names that will officially defend Barcelona this season.
With this problem in finance, how Barcelona are able to sign with Messi, register him in their squad for La Liga and how will they be able to do this without cutting some players in their squad?

Many people complained that Messi did not show his love and loyalty for Barcelona when that club needs him but now, we have a clearer view about the club condition. They are not able to do that even with smaller star players than Messi so doing it with Messi is impossible. It is unfair if they want to have Messi as a free agent (no transfer fee) and use him without good salary for him.
