With the opening of the winter window, Barca have become the most active team in the transfer market, but the newly recruited talented winger Felan Torres has not been able to register because the team has not completed the cleaning work and cannot free up enough salary space to accommodate Felan Torres. The good news is that Coutinho took the first step, but he only freed up 25% of his pay. Next, Umtiti is also fast, but it may not be enough for Felan Torres to register. Barca, meanwhile, are still tangling with Dembele's agent as the contract extension between the two sides has reached an impasse.
In fact, Dembele's agent continued to delay the renewal negotiations with Barca, but Dembele was still able to get the opportunity to play, but unfortunately the performance was sluggish. In the latest league, Dembele not only failed to help score and win, but every attack would become a finisher, basically ending with conceding goals, passing errors and shooting balls. Despite this, Xavi is still reluctant to replace Dembele, believing that he hopes to let Dembele know in this way that he will always be the core of Barca's attack, and there is no one.
So, Dembele's contract extension is Barca's top priority, Xavi wants to keep him, Barca does not want to watch him leave the team for free, the above two points are 100% confirmed. The only uncertainty is whether Dembele really wants to renew his contract with Barca, so it is inevitable that Barca will look for a dembele stand-in. From the current situation, Dembele has a great chance of not renewing his contract, if the renewal is successful, Barca will speed up the sale of him and exchange the transfer fee, and now Barca is very good at business. If looking for a stand-in for Dembele, the current news suggests that Barca are considering snatching former academy striker Adama Traore from Wolves.
As a talented winger, Adama Traore's statistics in the Premier League this season are very dismal, with 0 goals and 0 assists in 20 games, such data is too harsh. Of course, this gives Barca the opportunity to reduce the price, and I believe that the cost of introducing him will not be very high. Wolves are willing to let him go, and although Spurs are eyeing the tiger, as Barca joins the competition, it can be said that Barca's advantage is very large. Xavi has been recruiting according to Henrique's Spanish international list, first Ferran Torres, now Adama Traore, plus Traore is a La Masia youth player, which is fully in line with Barca's reinforcement strategy, and it is a rare power winger, Barca should be at hand. At present, the probability of Adama Traore's transfer to Barca is as high as 60%.
