La Liga
FC Barcelona has taken a firm step in its exit operation by identifying six players who are not part of Hansi Flick's plans for the next season. Ansu Fati, Clément Lenglet, Pablo Torre, Pau Víctor, Oriol Romeu, and Iñaki Peña are the names leading the list of top departures, in a summer that will be marked by the need to reduce the wage bill and generate income to improve maneuvering room within the Financial Fair Play.
The decision is part of a clear strategy from the sports department led by Deco, who has already begun the necessary procedures to close sales or contract terminations. Ansu Fati, with real possibilities of heading to AS Monaco, and Lenglet, sought after by Atlético de Madrid, represent two key operations due to their high salary cost and recent limited sporting impact.
Barcelona needs to sell players in the summer
In the case of young players Pablo Torre and Pau Víctor, both could continue their progression away from Camp Nou, with interest from the Bundesliga and buy-back clauses that would allow maintaining control over their development. On the other hand, Oriol Romeu and Iñaki Peña are not part of the coaching staff's plans and exits are being considered through termination agreements.
Although the list of transferable players could be expanded with other academy players like Noah Darvich or Alan Godoy, for now, the club's focus is on finalizing the departures of the six identified individuals. The recent sale of Álex Valle to Como for six million euros was just the beginning of a summer where the Blaugrana entity needs to complete several exits if they aim to make way for new signings. The squad restructuring has already started and will not stop until the financial balance allows it.
