Barcelona may not have an abundance of funds, but they still have big intentions for the summer transfer season. One of their main players might spend the majority of the season on the sidelines if they are successful with their preparations.
Sergio Busquets is expected to leave the club as well, and the Blaugrana have made it clear they want Lionel Messi. According to MD, Barcelona is interested in signing both Ilkay Gundogan and Joshua Kimmich this summer and believes they can sign both.
They emphasize that having those four in midfield will improve positional play and competition in the side given the presence of players like Pedri and Frenkie de Jong. In order to win games, Messi would also have four teammates who were eager to work hard off the ball.
The Barcelona wonderkid Gavi may be free to leave the club in the summer following the most recent development in a protracted legal dispute about the registration of a new contract he signed back in September.
In September, he agreed to a brand-new, massive four-year contract with a €1 ƅιℓℓιо𝚗 release clause. He had not played for Barcelona’s first team since signing his first professional deal when he was 16 years old. This was the first contract he had signed since then.
The Athletic, however, said that they were unable to register Gavi as a first-team player, therefore his status was changed to that of an academy player in the club’s most recent dispute with LaLiga over salary constraints.
When the Spain starlet’s new contract was signed last year, he was still designated as an academy player, but there was a plan to upgrade this status to a first team player, which could only be accomplished during a transfer window.
Spanish wonderkid Gavi might leave Barcelona for free this summer as a result of a court judgment
In January, nevertheless, they were unable to do so because LaLiga alleged that Barcelona had gone over their salary cap.

Gavi’s new contract included a provision allowing him to depart on a free transfer in the summer if he is still not listed as a first team player by June 30, 2023.
Barcelona attempted to force through Gavi’s registration as a first team player by seeking a legal judgement soon before the end of January. Without first informing LaLiga, they did this.
The Catalan giants asserted that the Spanish league’s reluctance to register Gavi’s new contract was a result of “a Һагаꜱꜱме𝚗т campaign” against the team.
They were initially successful, according to the article, and on January 31 a court issued a temporary agreement that required LaLiga to register Gavi as a first team player until a more long-term solution was found in a subsequent lawsuit. The court allowed 20 days for the submission of the case.
It is just another setback for Barca in their ongoing dispute with LaLiga over financial rules
Gavi would presumably leave the squad, and Messi and Robert Lewandowski would move to the front. Without taking players like Raphinha or Ousmane Dembele into account.
The fаcт that these plans sound bold is in Gavi’s favor. There is still much work to be done before Barcelona can bring in one or two of those players, much alone all three, given the Blaugrana were unable to execute their market plans last summer.
