It’s the end of June, but for Barcelona, the end is nowhere near. In fact, the Catalonians are in an endless run for more time and more money in order to end their (endless) financial plight. The sale of 49.9% of BLM is still stalled and the other 15% sale of television rights are not ready, which means – there will be no signings. Tomorrow, Ousmane Dembele will be a free player, he is still not signed. Gavi hasn’t renewed (yet), Sergi Roberto’s renewal is not registered, as well as contracts from Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen. Three wishes of Xavi Hernandez, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Jules Kounde are not signed. But then, in the 11th hour, the great news arrived: Barcelona signed an agreement with Sixth Street for the acquisition of 10% of the LaLiga club’s television rights. According to the official statement, with this operation, FC Barcelona generates a total capital gain of 267 million euros for this season.Let’s try that again shall we? Barcelona’s 40 million euros offer for Lewandowski will be finalAlso, there is a question of players who are at the club, but are not needed. Of course, they are not sold either, because nothing is being done at Barcelona. Xavi announced to several players that they are not in his plans ahead of the start of pre-season, which is scheduled for Monday, July 4th and they are already in process of finding other clubs. Off course, it’s not so easy to find another club after Barcelona, or to lower your wage demands, once you got used to big numbers.Barca’s ultimatum to Dembele – this time, not even his guardian angel Xavi could save himClement Lenglet is the first on the list, but mainly due to the fact that he is most likely to sign for another club very soon. He has been excused from the pre-season sessions as he is finalizing his Tottenham loan move, which should be finished by Monday. Other players are actively looking for clubs but they won’t them anytime soon. Oscar Mingueza, Samuel Umtiti, Riqui Puig and Martin Braithwaite are also on that list. The Danish international is not going to be at Camp Nou on Monday anyway, as he played in Nations League earlier this month and has an extended holiday until July 11. But he, as well as the other three players are unlikely to travel with the rest of the team to the United States, where Barcelona has games scheduled with Inter Miami, Real Madrid, Juventus and the New York Red Bulls.##NAJAVA_MECA_6479444##
