Despite the fact that now Barcelona is experiencing financial difficulties it is still a strong brand and it is still prestigious to play for Barcelona, although not as prestigious as it was 7-10 years ago, but still Barcelona was able to win La Liga 2 years ago and last season finished second and will play in the Champions League. The squad itself is not bad, but it lacks a good coach and I do not think that Flick is the right candidate for the club, rather he was hired just because there was not enough money for other famous coaches.
If Barcelona manage to sell Gundogan and buy Williams and Olmo with the proceeds from this deal, it will be a good breakthrough for the club in terms of transfers.

If I may assume, I don't think Gundogan will be released by Barcelona. Moreover, apart from his low transfer value, this player is the player with the most consistent performance last season, and is quite familiar with Hansi Flick, Barcelona's new manager. There are other names who have worked with Hansi Flick, namely Lewandowski and Ter Stegen. For me personally, although I have not seen Flick's performance over Barcelona, but with the experience and records he has, Barcelona has good hopes under his guidance. Flick might give a different touch to Barcelona, I mean he has different characteristics from Xavi who previously handled Barca. Flick is also a coach who carries attacking football, he has many tactics and strategies that he can apply to Barcelona.

We agree that Barcelona is a club that provides a strong attraction for players to join, even though Barcelona is not as successful as before. Plus the financial problems they are currently experiencing are often a hot topic among football lovers. In addition, we agree, if Nico Williams joins Barcelona, at least it will provide a good breakthrough in this transfer window. unfortunately, the financial problems they face are still a major obstacle. although, Fabrizio Romano had reported regarding Laporta's statement in the past week. I am just waiting for every further development, while also giving support as a Barcelona supporter.

Flick wants to sell Gundogan because he doesn't like Gundogan's performance as a leader, although I think it's just an excuse to get rid of the player. Gundogan gets 20 million euros a year and if you sell him to Saudi or Qatari clubs, you can get 60-80 million and that's on a fairly modest scale. Just this money may be enough to buy Williams, besides he wants to stay in Spain, but Olmo may not have enough money and everything will depend on Saudi and Qatari clubs, how much they can buy Gundogan.

Flick is a good coach and Bayern's success is proof of that, but he didn't do very well with the German national team and it's also a great luck for him that Barcelona believe in his coaching talent.
