So why is Frankie de Jong still not for sale? If you really want to fix the financial crisis, of course something has to be sacrificed. I think it is realistic to sell de Jong, who with his sale can provide some relief to improve the team by utilizing the sales proceeds to buy players who are desired but whose prices are still affordable. They want Nico Williams now because many rumors say that if they want to bring in Williams, Barcelona will receive FFP sanctions. Lewandowski is old, ideal to be replaced by a younger generation and suitable to be paired with Yamal. This is a consequence that Barcelona must take in order to avoid sanctions and increasingly messy finances. Totally improving finances is not a good solution, and Barcelona will not be able to do it other than improving little by little.
Previously there were several rumors that Barcelona would release De Jong in this summer's transfer window, but so far there has been no definite news. although, several clubs have been linked with this Dutch international player. There are also several media reports that, because currently Yamal is the main choice, rumors have emerged reporting that Raphinha is the ideal choice to be released by Barcelona. as well as De Jong, several Premier League clubs have also been linked. Unfortunately, so far there is no confirmation regarding these rumors. The latest news emerges from Fabrizio Romano's report, Barca is said to be increasingly confident of getting the final green light from Nico Williams regarding contract terms. It seems that negotiations between William and Barca's agents are going well. However, another problem was reported by this journalist from Spain, he said that La Liga's agreement for financial fair play was a key step. So, will this step run smoothly or will Barca be hampered? regarding Lewandowski, I doubt Barca will be replaced. because his role is still needed on the front lines. if Nico joins, then this will be something new for Barcelona. Nico Williams, Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal. Plus, the midfielder is quite reliable. IMO, quite ideal given Barcelona's current conditions. but as Romano reports, ultimately financial fair play is the key step.
