POTENTIAL BARCELONA EXITS THIS SUMMER

The summer transfer window keeps approaching thick and fast, reminding clubs that they have to start getting ready to go about their transfer businesses as quickly as they can. The approaching transfer window is one that will give clubs the opportunity to complete or initiate the businesses they were unable to initiate or complete in January, and it’s also a great chance to let go of players who are no longer needed.

One club that will definitely look forward to the summer transfer window is Barcelona, given how many reinforcements they need in their squad to be able to compete for major honors next season. However, while they are expected to make new signings, they are also expected to allow some players to leave the club. Here’s a list of the possible departures.

Samuel Umtiti

The French defender has struggled for form and consistency this season and is said to be in the last season of his Barcelona career. His niggling injuries have also been a part of his problems and manager Ronald Koeman is said to be fed up with him.

Martin Braithwaite

Many failed to understand why Barca signed the forward in the first place and the reasons for those questions have been glaring in the past months. The striker is said to be deemed surplus to requirements at the Camp Nou and will reportedly leave this summer.

Gerard Pique

Ronald Koeman is said to be also getting fed up with the Spanish defender and believes he is beginning to age as well. The manager also believes Mingueza is a perfect replacement for the central defender and everything is now set for him to depart the club in the summer.

Jordi Alba

Alba’s future at Barcelona is also in huge doubt and could also be heading for the exit door in the summer.
