Transfer trauma: Barcelona’s rebuilding woes

After all the hue and cry about revolution nothing much happened in Catalonia. Several days have passed since the appointment of Ronald Koeman and the subsequent announcement that Messi is not leaving. Yet all we have seen, in terms of transfers, is the low-key departure of Ivan Rakitiu0107. Yes, Vidal and Suárez are “supposedly” on the way out, but nothing is set in stone. If the past is any sort of precedent, then expect the worst.

In terms of incoming transfers, Barça seem to be moving for Depay and Wijnaldum. Shockingly, Barça have not been linked with a single defender.
