Barcelona Transfer News
Despite having some of the best talents in their academy, Barcelona still doesn't shy away from spending big money on buying world class players. The club can easily attract their target as players rarely turn down an offer from the Catalans. Therefore, most of the Barcelona transfer news will be surrounded around some of the best players in the world.
However, in the past season, Barcelona decided to stay low during transfer windows as the club had an awful financial crisis. As a result, the Catalans decided to let go of their prized asset Lionel Messi, who was the most earning player from the team. Antonio Griezmann followed Messi as he also earned a big amount of wages which was something that Barca couldn't afford anymore.
Now, under the guidance of new manager Xavi Hernandez, Barca are slowly getting over their debts and are looking to spend smartly on players in the coming window. It certainly looks like the club won't be spending enormous amount of money on a player which is something that they did in the past.
