Barcelona is facing the last stage of the market with many uncertainties. The Barcelona want to strengthen the team even more, but the salary limit leaves almost no mobility, although they will try to fulfill the wishes of the coach.
Xavi Hernandez considers the arrival of a striker to be essential and Morata his priority, moreover, he would like to complete the squad with a versatile full-back who can play on both sides. It is difficult but not impossible.
It is clear that Ansu Fati's injury has derailed plans. Xavi Hernandez had great confidence in the young player due to his ability to score goals, but it is possible that he will be left without the striker during the key months of the season.
Dembele's situation is also worrying as he could leave the attacking line with few players despite the fact that Braithwaite has been redeemed. What is increasingly clear is that Luuk de Jong may run into June due to a lack of performances and his impressive performance in recent weeks.
Xavi wants an experienced striker who can adapt to the team as quickly as possible. His bet is Morata and he has asked the board of directors in recent weeks. The process seems feasible because Juventus is on the verge of finding a replacement, but the drama goes beyond the salary limit that, today, the former Atletico Madrid player will not be allowed to score.
Barcelona operate in different ways, but everything happens if Dembele agrees to leave next week or with the message of freedom, a situation that seems complicated.
As for the full-back, Xavi has an open option to bring in a left-back for six months on loan. It wouldn't be a very big investment, but they see it as necessary due to the lack of players in that region.
Xavi does not see that Alex Balde is mature enough, has options to go out on loan, and will need a specialist who can also help out on the right. This process is simpler, but it will be processed only if it is possible to register a new player.
The player who looks set to continue at Barcelona is Serginio Dest. The American full-back was not part of Xavi's plans for the end of the season and he had important offers on the table.
Dest continued to work and already had a presence against Athletic Bilbao, so he will not leave unless a tempting transfer offer arrives and all parties agree to formalize his departure. Otherwise, Dest will stay until June and then a decision will be made because he is a very young player and can advance a lot if he does well.
