Pessimism at Barça with the Depay operation

Drop the souffle on the signing of Memphis Depay. At this time, as As was able to know, pessimism has settled in Barça with what, theoretically, it should be an affordable operation for the Barça club, since it was valued at about 25 million euros. The signing, highly desired by Ronald Koeman, was well under way as he had the green light for the player, who also only had one year left on his contract.

But Barça had to enter for other sales, and that money is not coming. Except for the sale of Nelson Semedo, which will serve to finance the signing of Sergiño Dest, the club needs to enter more money in transfers. Todibo, Rafinha, Umtiti or Júnior were the chosen ones to be transferred, but Barça finds obstacles in his signing. The Barça also has in the window to Ousmane Dembélé, but neither does he find reasonable offers to propose his exit.

The operation also has a supposed 'deadline' since Jean-Michel Aulas has set Friday, day 2, as the deadline to close the transfer. So Barça is against the clock. Koeman presses and also the player, wanting to play for Barça. The arrival of Depay, accustomed some seasons ago to moving in the position of nine, is not ruled out, but yes “difficult” as they admit in the club.
