Foot – Market – Barcelone
Having already recorded four arrivals this summer, Joan Laporta would not want to stop there. And the president of FC Barcelona would have a big dream: to bring together Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi at Barça during the next summer transfer window.
Joan Laporta has already struck a big blow on the transfer window after registering the arrivals of Sergio Aguero, Eric Garcia, Emerson and Memphis Depay. Nevertheless, the president of the FC Barcelona would not want to stop there, he who said in an interview for The vanguard that three or four players were still expected this summer. As a result, the leader of the Catalan club would have a big dream as explained AS : reunite Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi at Barça. And in order to carry out this operation, Joan Laporta would be willing to splurge.
Laporta set to include multiple players for Cristiano Ronaldo
Also according to the Spanish media, the president blaugrana is aware that the price of Portuguese, at the end of the contract in June 2022 with the Juventus, is out of budget. Thus, he would have a strategy to lower the cost of the transfer. Indeed, Joan Laporta would be ready to offer two players to the Old lady against the fivefold Ballon d’Or. And not the least sinceAntoine Griezmann, Sergi Roberto and Philippe Coutinho were brought up to enter the operation. While the transfer seems almost unimaginable, studies have shown that with Cristiano Ronaldo in its workforce, the FC Barcelona would see its income doubled. Nevertheless, Joan Laporta does not yet know if the transfer is feasible, especially since it could run into some problems.
Several obstacles stand on the road to Laporta
Indeed, in his utopia, Joan Laporta has not yet considered how he plans to support the astronomical salary of Cristiano Ronaldo while he is already struggling to meet the conditions to extend Lionel Messi. As a reminder, the Portuguese striker is paid up to 31M € per year. In addition, the president of the FC Barcelona wouldn’t know if the 36-year-old would be ready to accept the Blaugrana, he who has become a true legend among the rival, the Real Madrid, after having spent nine beautiful and fruitful years there where he won four Champions League. Finally, no direct contact with his agent, the famous Jorge Mendes, have not yet been initiated. Through all these obstacles, an arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo at FC Barcelona seems impossible. But if Joan Laporta succeeds in bringing together those who total 11 Ballon d’Or between them, and who have reigned in football for more than a decade, he will certainly be considered a great genius.
