FC Barcelona is one of the most popular and traditional football club in the world. Starting its journey at 1899 from Catalunya, Spain, it has a lot of fans from all over the world right now. And this popularity increased the most when Leo Messi started to play for Barca, who is one of the greatest of all time. Leo Messi and some other awesome players played for Barcelona over decades and make this club the best one in last decade. But when Leo Messi was forced to leave the club, the mismanagement of this traditional club started to exposed naturally day by day. As a result they was totally out of the race of winning any trophy. It was a big fall of this club and a big reasons of bleeding from the heart of this club fans form all over the world. To increase their sorrows, thay had to suffer some financial issue imposed on the club. That is why they were unable to sign any players to improve their performance in play ground.
But then their new president Laporte and sporting director Alemany came in front. They have utilised some actions that were seemed to be impossible just months ago. Although Laporte has sold their 25% La Liga TV rights and are on the way of selling 49% of their merchandising to afford for all of these actions, now Barca has a squad to fight for all the trophy in front of them. The clubs may suffer for selling that rights in the long run, but I think these was necessary to stand in this situation.
This transfer window is very special for Barcelona. They have signed Lewandoski, Raphinha, Dembele, Kounde, Christensen, Kessie etc. A list of some awesome players. And this Barcelona is changed one that was proven against Real Madrid in friendlies. Though the match against Juventus was drawn by 2-2, Barcelona played far better than the opposition.
Now there is another news that Barcelona are now trying to resign Leo Messi at 2023 when his contact with PSG will end. If they can utilise that, it would be the greatest one from Laporte and Alemany.
However, in the upcoming season, Barcelona will be beast again to fight for all to win. Europe must be ready to face this.
