Young players are good, but you understand that it will take a long time for them to get the necessary experience, and Barcelona needs results now. They are trying to attract new players, they decided not to extend Felix's loan because of this, that is, they are doing something. They can also try to apply Real's strategy and attract players with free agent status to the team, for some teams this is also a working strategy. But Barcelona does not have big problems, they have a balanced team that is ready for the new season.

IMO, if Hansi Flick's gameplay goes well enough with their young players, it is hoped that Barcelona's core players can be much better. At least, the system that Hansi Flick will develop is slightly visible with him fielding Barcelona's young players. which might happen later, if some regular players cannot play with good performance. Hansi Flick does not hesitate to pull them out, and play young potential players. besides, as a coach who is rich in experience. I am quite sure that Flick realizes that the performance of the young players is so unstable, besides the age factor which is still very young, the lack of playing minutes that causes the ups and downs of the performance of the young players.
it could be that Barcelona's decision not to extend Joao Felix's loan was based on Flick trying the alternative he had, namely with La Masia academy players. I mean, if the regular players do not perform optimally, then these young players will be fielded. I am not sure about Cancelo, but in fact Barcelona needs to strengthen its defense. interestingly, many news reports that Hansi Flick aims to bring Barcelona back with his philosophy. therefore, he plans to bring Barcelona to be champions. although, it is not as easy as he said. we know that Real Madrid looks much more competitive, as well as Ateltico by bringing in several new arrivals in this season's window that can provide tough competition for Barcelona. but still, as Barcelona lovers we will give our full support.

If I recall correctly, in the last season Barcelona had a lot of problems with the defense. Barcelona was unable to defend properly and gave away some easy points. that’s why Barcelona was unable to win the La Liga title in the end. Otherwise, the Catalan giants also had a very good chance of winning the La Liga title. The Catalan giants lost against a pretty average team with a score of 4-2, and were in a very crucial period of the season. At least that’s what I remember. So yes the Catalan giants should improve the defense a lot.

Hansi Flick has to make a lot of decisions. They have to think about the money that they have, they also have to think about how to save money. Of course, the sensible decision at this moment seems to be bringing in young players but if there is a lack of experience in the squad, it can also be a problem for La Blaugrana.

For some reason, I think Atletico Madrid is going to be the biggest competition of the Catalan giants in the next season. And Ancelotti's Real Madrid is again going to run away with things.
