He FC Barcelona is dragging demons from the past, specifically Hansi Flick and Thiago Alcantara They have inherited a serious lack from the Blaugranas on the sporting level that has a dramatic meaning on the economic level, especially in this summer transfer market where the situation has moved so much and so strongly. Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid is doing it, who in fact have caused a large part of this Barça deficit.
Disastrous years
Just look at how much Barcelona has touched the hell of one of its rivals in LaLiga EA Sports, which is not Real Madrid and which has not performed dazzlingly in Europe in recent years, such as Atletico Madridhas surpassed him in a fight that is being key in the market, basically because it can be said that, due to the poor sporting performance of Barça, the Madrid team is taking home a huge prize; Atleti will take a huge amount of money that it uses in its budget to sign players.
With the best
And it is that the signings of Alexander Sorloth, Robin Le Normand and Javi Guerrathe colchonero team is one step away from confirming the Julian Alvarezfour new names that give more security to a project, that of Cholo Simeone, which will have tough and multiple fronts. And of these, Barça will not be in one, as is the Club World Cup, which also makes Atleti rich. Bear in mind that for participating, each team receives 50 million euros; with the option of adding zeros to that figure if they go far. Thus, in addition to the damage to the image, publicity and status of FC Barcelona for not being in a tournament in which the best teams in the world will be present, there is the financial factor, which unbalances the scales not only in favour of Madrid, which also, but also of Atleti.
A tailor-made Champions League… and they failed
And if Atleti is the indirect culprit for the absence of Barça in the World Cup, the team of Marco Asensio, Ousmane Dembele and Fabian RuizPSG, are the material authors of this. The French, who, like the Catalans, were on the right side of the Champions League draw last season, eliminated Barça in the quarter-finals, and then fell to Dortmund, who would reach the final, and This early elimination allowed Atleti to qualify for the World Cup thanks to its better UEFA coefficient (based on the performances of teams in recent years).
