Barça must find 70 M €
Embarking on the finalization of the Miralem Pjanic and Lautaro Martinez files, FC Barcelona has been in the front page of the transfer window for several weeks. The first file cited would have advanced well this weekend, an agreement having been reached with Juventus, according to the Catalan press. But to finalize all of this, L’Esportiu explains to us this morning that Barça must first find € 70 million thanks to the sale of several players. And for that an operation with the Old Lady will be very welcome. The departure of Nelson Semedo to Turin, added to the 25 M € that the Blaugranas should recover would therefore be a first step. A sale of Arthur Melo would also be good for the club’s finances, according to the media. All this in order to complete the arrival of Pjanic and especially Lautaro Martinez as quickly as possible.
Inter advance over Edinson Cavani
It’s not just Juve in Italy who will be active on the transfer window this summer. Inter also seeks reinforcements and according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, several tracks would be on the front line to fill Antonio Conte. We think of Emerson Palmieri of Chelsea, Nelson Semedo of Barça or Sandro Tonali of Brescia. But it is especially on the front of the attack that the options would be the most advanced, according to the newspaper with pink paper. The names of Timo Werner and Edinson Cavani return with insistence and rightly, it seems, since the Interistes would continue to advance on the two files. For the Uruguayan, the fact that Paris is negotiating with Inter the final transfer of Mauro Icardi is a positive sign. The Italians could link the departure of Icardi with the arrival of Cavani. In short, the negotiations continue.
Serie A clubs have lost 1 billion euros!
Some people will say that it will be harder afterwards. The post-crisis, linked to the COVID-19 coronavirus which paralyzed football for several months, should be difficult for many clubs in Europe. In Italy, Serie A teams should not escape the rule. And according to Tuttosport this Tuesday, the clubs of the flagship championship of the peninsula would have lost no less than 1 billion euros since the end of the competitions. So the newspaper directly questions the Prime Minister of the country, Giuseppe Conte, this morning, asking him: “Are you going to pay?” The state will have to save the clubs, because for the moment it does not want to take any risk by precipitating a recovery planned for the moment at least on June 20.
