Barcelona’s summer transfer activities have begun quietly, marked by the departure of three notable players: Marc Guiu to Chelsea, Sergino Dest to PSV, and Marcos Alonso due to his contract expiring. Their approach to acquisitions has been restrained due to the league’s reinstatement of the 1:1 rule, limiting their ability to bring in new talent.
However, Barcelona is poised to break their dry spell in signings with promising developments reported by Sport regarding Dani Olmo and Nico Williams. It is anticipated that one of these deals will be concluded by the upcoming week’s end, with Williams currently leading the negotiations.
Negotiations are progressing on personal terms, with plans in place to trigger Williams’ release clause once terms are agreed upon. Additionally, an offer has been extended to Olmo’s representatives.
Barcelona’s aspiration to secure either player is tempered by financial constraints, compounded by the reinstatement of the 1:1 rule in La Liga, which underscores the current challenges they face.
