Other news that I saw from Fabrizio Romano is that Barcelona will not bring in a single player this January although this is not a surprise because we know their condition is still not possible to bring in new players but I think this is also a bold and risky decision because in the end with the situation that happened this indirectly Xavi will be the scapegoat when Barcelona cannot get a decent place in the competition they are currently playing.

There is really no other option for Barcelona at the moment because forcing to look for players will disturb their financial stability and not necessarily also by bringing players they can return to the position they really want.
At the moment they will still only continue to focus on making the situation from their performance better with makeshift players. Although it will still be very difficult but there will be nothing they can do for this.
The possibility that will be done actually for now Barcelona is to change the attack pattern in order to slightly close the gap because of their players who are indeed sober at this time.
Lewa this season is not going well and I think it would be better to use a scheme where 4-3-3 is emphasized rather than one striker. They cannot continue to force Lewa who is already struggling so therefore, it would be better to play 2 me where there are names Joao and Yamal who can still be used as options and in the midfield there is also Gundogan who can still organize attacks with Pedri and De Jong.

Actually for now I am quite sorry for Xavi because at the moment he is required to improve Barcelona's performance instantly but on the other hand he is faced with a Barcelona situation that continues to experience problems so that this actually becomes a situation that goes awry for Xavi in the end.
Even though if we look as a whole in terms of current performance Xavi is one of the young coaches who has potential but because of the unfavorable situation for him from Barcelona's current resources he is cornered by fans who think his performance cannot bring Barcelona in a more positive direction even though we know the initial problem started from their stagnant finances.

But if Real Madrid would be successful in signing Davies, it would be an unbelievable left side for Real Madrid. Just combine the pace of Vinicius Junior and Davies. That would probably be the fastest duo in football. I assume that this is the idea, to add some extra pace to the left side although they are good already. But Davies is well positioned with his contract ending in 2025. It would be the only possibility for Bayern Munich to make some money if they decide to transfer him to Real Madrid. And Davies knows that Bayern Munich would have to raise his salary or else he would let his contract expire and leave the club in 2025.

That might be an option in Ancelotti future plans and it could also be one of the reasons why Madrid have wanted Davies even from previous seasons.
But with that its likely that one of the player will definitely leave if in the end Davies can really be obtained although for now i cannot be sure whether Madrid will intend to bring him in this transfer window or not because of Ancelotti statement that he will not bring a single player for the defense in January this time because Ancelotti is still quite confident with some of their players who can anticipate the defense well even though there are some of their defensive centers injured.

I wasn't really talking about the January transfer window as that is highly unlikely that Bayern Munich would sell a player while looking forward to the Champions League games against the best teams in the world. No top club would sell a player like Davies in a winter transfer window when they are still competing for Europe's most important trophy.

But Ancelotti is planning ahead and that is why he extended his contract. He would love to sign Davies and Mbappe on top of that. This would be an ultra high speed team with Vinicius Junior, Davies and Mbappe. My lord this would be insane for any opponent to defend against.

Maybe that's understandable but when discussing Davies now indirectly it will definitely be connected to the current transfer in the end because we must be aware of being in the transfer thread with the discussion of player transfers coinciding with the currently open transfer window it is very related to each other: D But indeed for the Davies problem it will not happen because after all now Ancelotti already knows that the statement he gave earlier by not bringing the defender is definitely accounted for but it is possible that if it is for next season's transfer then it looks like this still applies to Davies because after all if his performance does not decline at Bayern then surely Madrid will continue to pursue this player because it is one of the characteristics of Madrid when wanting a player to be at the Bernabeu.
