Another news I just heard is that Madrid player Mbappe is not the player with the most expensive salary at the moment. He lost to Barcelona's De Jong. De Jong receives 37.5 million Euros every year. Perhaps this condition is what makes Barcelona's financial situation difficult. Selling De Jong may be a good strategy to reduce the financial burden.
1. Frankie De Jong 37.5M Euros
2. Lewandowski 33.5M Euros
3. Kylian Mbappe 31.2M Euros
4. David Alaba 22.5M Euros
5. Jan Oblak 20.8 37.5M Euros

Lewandowski is also worth selling because he is no longer good in terms of productivity this season.

Ideally, De Jong would be sold for more than 37.5 million Euros, which could provide many options for Barcelona to look for other players, but it seems difficult. De Jong was indeed proposed to by several European teams, especially Man United, but because De Jong did not want his salary to be reduced and Barcelona debt to him was still not paid off, this was a strong reason for him to stay. There is no guarantee that Barcelona will be able to compete with Real Madrid next season. Therefore, I prefer to replace Rival Barcelona with Girona or Atletico Madrid. It would be inappropriate if Real Madrid were his current rival, plus recently Real Madrid broke a new record as a club with revenues of 1 billion Euros, the only club in football history.
