It's so sad that even a big team like Barcelona can't even afford to sign Nico Williams, how about Mbappe? it's impossible for them to sign Mbappe, they might only able to buy Mbappe's hair lol.

Yes, this is very sad, I must say, I also think that something is broken.
The problem is also the investments made with Xavi which have not returned and consequently the team is in a greater crisis.
Certainly the salaries and costs of the players influence the crisis of modern teams.
Poor management does further damage. In my opinion..

That’s something I think should be looked into by Uefa at some point, the salary and cost of a player although, this has been some worth regulated in the amount a team can spend in the transfers but, over again, you find teams seeking loopholes and cutting corners to archive their goal of getting what player and under certain conditions.
Not like situations in the society have helped much but, the cost of a player could be capped as, every transfer season, it often seems like teams are in the rush to hype the cost of a player who only turns out to deliver on few occasions.

In my opinion, player costs do not reflect reality. A player from the English league is sold for over 100 million Euros just because he plays slightly above average, and it is a great nonsense to pay such astronomical prices. Such high amounts should not be paid. Some teams can rise above other teams by paying this, but the spirit of football is now left behind. Unfortunately, it is a time when money is power in football.

And here there are no operations like in the Saudi League, because if the prices here are astronomical, in that league they are a thousand times more astronomical, so in view of these things, I think that each of the players quote them according to how the teams want to give them their value, it is not that they do it just like that, the best experts in sports specialty only in football are the ones who launch their valuations and according to that the teams establish their prices, that is how it works, that is why it is so legal and acceptable.

Not seems like that for Olmo. Tongue

I agree with Leipzig though, this offer is really ridiculous. But of course Barcelona has no other way of affording both of Olmo and Williams. If Leipzig accepted this offer, the highest amount of money they get would probably be 40 million euros in instalments. Grin

Because I don't feel like Barcelona can win even a La Liga title unless they improve squad quality.

But for Williams, they should do whatever they can. Even the fans are trying to finance them over Barcelona TikTok account you know. The same comment exists in all those donations: For Nico Williams.

It is reasonable for Leipzig to feel that the offer made by Barcelona is ridiculous because as we know, Dani Olmo has found his stage at Euro 2024 and he looks shining there, and because of that, Dani Olmo has received attention from many clubs. So with what he has been through, that will at least make him prefer a high market value, but, the offer submitted by Barcelona seems to give the impression that Dani Olmo is not a player who deserves to be their priority.

Personally, I wouldn't let Olmo go for anything in the world, because he's a very good player, just by looking at how he played with his national team, that's enough. To get rid of him, they would have to offer a reasonable amount, something like what they offer in Saudi football, but I would think about it.

Barcelona's first offer for Man City target Dani Olmo rejected - report

Quote

RB Leipzig have rejected a bid from Barcelona that falls short of their €60m (£51m) valuation of Euro 2024 winner Dani Olmo, reports in Germany state.

Despite only becoming a starter in the latter stages of the competitions - thanks to the injury suffered by Pedri in the quarter-finals - Olmo proved to be a key man for Spain in their Euro 2024 triumph earlier in the summer. The attacking midfielder bagged three goals and two assists for his nation, including the winner in the semi-final clash with favourites France in Munich.
