Even without Mbappe with Barcelona, ​​they have a high chance of retaining the title of this competition. now, Barcelona has a fairly competitive depth of players. good for the front line, midfield, even the defense line. this team, for me is quite ideal despite the fact that they are experiencing financial problems. Barcelona has quite ideal players, both the core squad and the second tier. yes, at least with limited funds Barcelona was able to bring in absolutely ideal players even with several players who were free agents.

Speaking of Mbappe, don't expect Barcelona to be able to sign him with the financial crisis they are currently facing, as something that is almost impossible. However, for me, Barcelona this season is more competitive than ever. some of the rumors that I read from various sources, there are several players who will be released by Barcelona namely, Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. although, previously Laporta said he would not let them go. but, maybe it could happen if Barca need funds to target newcomers. In essence, Barcelona still has a chance to become a strong competitor for Real Madrid in the race for the trophy next season.

Talking about Real Madrid, we can't say for sure whether Don Carlo will bring in a striker as a replacement for Benzema. but for sure, the transfer window still has a lag time. it could be, if in the end Mbappe joins this summer. thus this team, will be sharper on the front lines. but if not, the 2023/2024 season is a big test for Don Carlo at the end of his coaching with Madrid. because, as we know, Ancelotti will be the coach of the Brazilian national team in the future. and yes, let's just wait for the new season to start.
