Barcelona is currently still experiencing a financial crisis. And this is one of the things that new coaches must know, so that the price agreement process must be in place at the beginning before everything is approved. And according to the news, Flick has indeed agreed to the price, which in fact is no more than €3M net euros, or €6M gross.
What is also a concern is that Barcelona does not seem to have resolved their affairs with Xavi. Yes, they are still in the process of resolving the issue of paying themselves and their staff before Barcelona makes an official announcement regarding Hansi Flick. The problem is, as usual, Barcelona wants to get an agreement to reduce the fees that must be paid. Is that the meaning of this news, right? But what is certain is that Barcelona's financial problems are not yet resolved. In fact, we don't yet know for sure whether there will be big players who Barcelona will actually sell or not to cover this shortfall or cut the salaries that must be paid again.

I think it will certainly be quite difficult for coaches to recruit expensive players with the best quality if they don't have a big budget. This is definitely something Hansi Flick has to think about in the transfer market because elite teams from various leagues will rush quickly to secure players signatures because they have healthy finances.
Of course Barcelona needs some new players to strengthen their squad, like Gavi he is still injured and maybe Barcelona has to think about that. In the previous season when Xavi was still with Barcelona he also had big obstacles in the transfer market because he was given not much money but Xavi managed to bring in quality players, well that's what Hansi Flick also had to do.
