Call it over the bar and you will be totally correct as LaLiga president Javier Tebas has said itโs โimpossibleโ for Barcelona to be in a position next season to sign top players like Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe due to the clubโs financial situation.
Haalandโs agent, Rafaela Pimenta, said that the Norway international has the โkey to the doorโ to leave Manchester City whenever he wants.
Tebas has previously spoken about his wish to see Haaland and Mbappe playing in Spainโs top-flight, and when asked if this was good news for LaLiga he told El Chiringuito: โI hope thatโs the case. But these two players could only come to Real Madrid right now because Barcelonaโs financial situation as of today does not permit Barcelona to reach these types of players.
โMany things would have to change financially at Barcelona for them to be able to go for these players next season, so many things that I would consider it impossible.โ
Despite the departures of Gerard Pique, who retired in November last year, Memphis Depay who joined Atletico Madrid and Hector Bellerinโs transfer to Sporting Lisbon, league leaders Barca were unable to sign any players in the January transfer window due to LaLigaโs financial fair play rules.
