Barcelona: Xavi showed Holland for the next day
Xavi has used Erling Halland as Barcelona’s clear No.1 goal to set up the new team.
Barcelona are looking for players they can count on for the next day and Xavi has shown the team’s management his number one goal.
This is none other than Erling Halland. The Norwegian is the player Xavi believes the new Barcelona should build on.
Of course, this case alone isn’t easy as there are other interested parties to acquire him while the Catalans’ financials are tight.
However, Laporta and his associates are already preparing to present their final proposal to convince the Norwegian to join Barcelona.
From what we know about the case, Barcelona’s main concern is to please the coach and the player’s father, who are said to be the toughest negotiators.
The amount Raiola asks for a commission, but also what the player’s father wants as a signing bonus, increases his cost significantly. There are reports that the Catalans will offer plenty of bonuses on the player side to be able to cover the possible difference.
In any case, Barcelona are expected to come up with a proposal straight away so they can embrace it and draw level with the other suitors.
