FC Barcelona has no peace about financial fair play. Although they are in first place and close to another title in La Liga, the Catalans have not yet solved the problem of adjusting the salary budget.

De Jong, Rafinha or Ansu Fati can leave Barcelona.

If last summer they found a solution to build a team for this season’s parade, then in the next transfer window Barcelona must give up at least one important player to reduce the wage bill, writes Marca.

A possible pay cut for Jordi Alba or Busquets will not be enough and the management must sell.

There is a list of “immovable” footballers that includes Ter Stegen, Kunde, Araujo, Gavi, Pedri, Lewandowski or Ousmane Dembele, although in the case of the latter, he may be excluded due to numerous injuries.

Most likely, depending on the offers that will arrive in the next period, the Catalans are ready to give up the “need” of at least one footballer among Balde, Christensen, De Jong, Rafinha, Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres or Eric Garcia.

In their case, if the financial situation of the team did not depend on the departures, the club would not give up any of them, but the decision is seen as a compromise.

After 26 played stages of La Liga, “Barcelona” is in first place with 68 points, 12 more than the holder of the second position, “Real” Madrid.
