Like this it has been the window of transferences of the Barça

The summer transfer window has officially come to an end and FC Barcelona has lived some historic months to reinforce its squadstarring the economic ‘levers’ and the management of Joan Laporta, Mateu Alemany and company, who despite the economic crisis have managed to ensure that the squad for 2022-2023 is of the highest possible quality.

Barça closes the transfer market with a long list of additions, but above all exits. The sports management has managed to ‘get rid’ of the players that Xavi Hernández did not have for the season and, despite the fact that the income has not been much, the club has managed to ‘get rid’ of many high salaries in order to generate ‘fair financial play.
