Laporta thinks Barcelona will have €200 million to spend this summer

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has briefed reporters that he is hoping the club will have around €200 million to spend this summer on transfers.

Laporta had an informal chat with journalists after the media enjoyed a match at the newly-named Spotify Camp Nou on Friday, according to AS.

The Barcelona president has said he’s confident the club will have €200m to spend after the second economic lever is activated.

Laporta also knows which players he wants to splash out on: Robert Lewandowski, Jules Kounde, Raphinha, and Bernardo Silva.

A deal for Raphinha is thought to be close already, and it’s already been reported Barca will try a similar formula (of playing in instalments) to try and land Kounde.
