Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix are two players who came to Barca on loan last summer. They are integrating very well in the new team and receiving trust from the Board of Directors as well as Barca’s coaching staff.
Barca is gradually overcoming financial difficulties.
Sharing with MD, Deco said: “We are delighted with their contribution to the teamboth of them excelled and helped us a lot.”
“It’s too early to mention negotiations with Man City or Atletico. Let’s wait and see. The two Joao guys helped us, that’s important.”
In fact, Barca really wants to buy these two players outright after their loan expires. However, Barca’s financial problems are affecting negotiations.
It is known that Felix receives a salary of nearly 300,000 euros/week at Atletico Madrid but accepted a salary reduction of up to 97% to join the Nou Camp team. The fact that La Liga is imposing a salary ceiling on the Catalan team prevents them from paying too high a salary to their stars.
