FC Barcelona is taking giant steps in the transfer market for next season and wants to incorporate a luxury midfielder from the Spanish national team. Barça wants a luxury teammate for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> who also follows in the footsteps of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>.



After losing the bid for Nico Williams in a negotiation that took success for granted, Barcelona has found the ideal reinforcement for their midfield.&nbsp; For this reason, the club’s board of directors accelerated the decision to sign one of the stars of the Spain National Team in the consecration of the Euro in Germany.



On the other hand, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> is close to closing the definitive incorporation of a full-back, who already showed his quality during his loan at the club last season, he has become a key piece in the team’s scheme. His arrival will bring experience, quality, and versatility to the Barça defense.



<h2>Who will be Barça’s new brain in midfield?</h2>



The talented Spanish player Dani Olmo, who shone at the European Championship, will arrive at Camp Nou from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/rb-leipzig">RB Leipzig</a> for a figure close to 55 million euros and will become the new brain of FC Barcelona’s midfield. Olmo is expected to wear the mythical number 10 shirt, following in the footsteps of legends such as Messi and Ronaldinho.

The arrival of Dani Olmo provides Barcelona with a player with a great vision of the game, and the ability to get unmarked and score. His versatility allows him to play in various positions in midfield, which gives him great adaptability to Hansi Flick’s tactical scheme. In addition, his youth and future projection make him a long-term bet for the club.



<h2>Barcelona prepares for a new cycle</h2>



On the other hand, Barcelona is close to closing the definitive incorporation of the Portuguese <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/joao-cancelo">Joao Cancelo</a>. With the signings of Dani Olmo and Joao Cancelo, Barcelona is building a team with a mix of youth and experience. The Barça board has shown ambition in the transfer market, looking to strengthen all the lines of the team to be able to compete at the highest level.



The next season is presented as a new cycle for Barcelona. With a renewed team and an exciting sporting project, the Catalans hope to regain prominence in Spanish and European football.

Being a soccer star means constant photos, selfies, and autographs; it simply comes with the territory. Even on the worst of days a player must suck it up and do the duties for many fans looking to meet their heroes. For<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-citys-joao-cancelo-reveals-details-about-robbery-that-led-to-facial-injuries-20211231-0004.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> João Cancelo</a> at Barcelona he has come under scrutiny over the way he treated some “fans” as he was leaving the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Barcelona</a> training ground.



The video shows a group of teenage and twenty something fans asking for photos, with Cancelo in his car, and autographs but the player is firm to state that some of the autograph seekers are “here every day”. Cancelo goes as far as saying no to one of the people looking for an autograph.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231010#BUS#73860"></div>


On social media the video was uploaded, and many fans hit back at Cancelo for not signing autographs and having a bad attitude. The full back took to social media to clear up what happened and maintains his stance on “supposed fans” looking to make a profit from the passion of others.



<h2>João Cancelo responds to online criticism</h2>



After the video showed Cancelo saying to a Barcelona supporter, “You’re so annoying, my God. You are here every day. Do I have to stop my car every day?” Many fans were not pleased with the player, but Cancelo cleared it all up by responding to the comments. 



“For all the stupidity that is being written (on Instagram) in the comments I have a few things to say. 



“First of all, they are not supporters, they are “kids” that are in their 20’s who go every day at the entrance of the club, at the park when I am with my daughter, or simply having dinner with my girlfriend.

“Second, they ask for autographs on training gear and jerseys to resell them later. And this repeats every day, it’s always the same people.” 



Cancelo went on to state, “These people don’t respect the space of others.” For Cancelo clearing up the air will smooth things over with the Barcelona fans where he has started on the right foot at the club.

Even though their financial situation has been far from great, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FC Barcelona</a> have been linked with a number of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/manchester-city" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester City</a> players in recent years. They managed to sign a few of them, but they’ve mostly failed to land their targets.
In the summer of 2021,for instance, Barça were only able to sign free agents Eric Garcia and Sergio ‘Kun’ Agüero, and couldn’t bring in Raheem Sterling, who was their primary target. Months later, they pulled off the signing of Ferran Torres, but couldn’t get the signature of Bernardo Silva.
It makes sense, since many of their targets were way above their budget. However, it looks like they had everything ready to sign another ‘Citizen’ this season until <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/josep-guardiola" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pep Guardiola</a> stepped in.
<h2>Pep Guardiola reportedly blockedJoão Cancelo’s move to Barcelona</h2>
According to Spanish outlet Sport, Barcelona had agreed on terms with Manchester City for the transfer of Portuguese right-backJoão Cancelo in winter, but Guardiola blocked the move.
Barça were reportedly aware that Pep’s relationship with Cancelo <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/Report-Joao-Cancelos-exit-to-Bayern-Munich-is-due-to-a-huge-fight-with-Pep-Guardiola-20230130-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was broken</a>, and therefore tried to seize the opportunity to strengthen at the position. However, for some reason it was their former coach who didn’t let the defender move to the Camp Nou.
 
<div class="ck-related-news"> 
<div id="relatedNews-19"> </div>

Cancelo was eventually sent on loan to Bayern Munich, and Barcelona stuck to their options with Ronald Araujo, Jules Kounde, or Sergi Roberto performing as right-back.

The African team has already shown its credentials at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-World-Cup-Knockout-Stage-Bracket-Schedule-Dates-TV-Channel-and-Predictor-20221129-0033.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Qatar 2022</a>, finishing as Group F leaders against all odds before pulling off a shock against Spain in the Round of 16. Now, it’s Portugal’s turn to make sure Morocco don’t produce another upset.
Fernando Santos has therefore named a star-studded starting eleven, which will have some notable absences regardless. Apart from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/qatar2022/Qatar-2022-Why-is-Cristiano-Ronaldo-not-starting-for-Portugal-vs-Morocco-20221210-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>, Joao Cancelo is also starting on the bench.
<h2>Why was Joao Cancelo benched for the Portugal game against Morocco</h2>
Joao Cancelo doesn’t have any injury, so the reason he’s not starting against Morocco is a tactical decision. Santos has chosen Diogo Dalot and Raphael Guerreiro asstarting wing-backs, so the Man City star will have to wait on the bench.

Manchester City’s Joao Cancelo reveals details about robbery that led to facial injuries

Manchester City’s Joao Cancelo reveals details about robbery that led to facial injuries - Bolavip US

It’s not a secret that FC <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/barcelona-t11" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a> have struggled to live up to the expectations over the past couple of years, and now that they’ve convinced <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/lionel-messi-t13" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lionel Messi</a> to extend his stay at the club, they need to add more firepower to bringhome another UEFA <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Champions League.</a>
That’s why they secured the signings of Sergio Aguero and Eric García, but according to a report by Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, they’re far from done spending. If anything, they want to add even more former Citizens to their ranks.
The report states that Barcelona President Joan Laporta has turned his attention to 4 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester City</a> players. And, with Pep Guardiola reportedly eyeing Ousmane Dembeléand/or Sergi Roberto, there could be a swap in the works right as we speak.

<h2>Report: Barcelona Interested In 4 Manchester City Players</h2>
<h2>4. Bernardo Silva</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210618_BUS_172172_bernardo_silva_1.jpg_22993414_bd70fe91.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Bernardo Silva. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Even though he has been one of the most reliable players since joining the Manchester City, Bernardo Silva has been losing ground in Guardiola’s pecking order. He’s a perfect fit for the Cule’s schemeand could be a part of a swap for Ousmane Dembelé.
<h2>3. Aymeric Laporte</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210618_BUS_172172_aymeric_laporte_1.jpg_22993414_d7f53f5d.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Aymeric Laporte. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Leftie center-back Aymeric Laportehas been linked with a move away from the team for some time now, and it seems like Real Madrid are also interested in his services. Barcelona are looking forward to reinforcing their final third of the roster with a top-notch player next to Samuel Umtiti.
<h2>2. Joao Cancelo</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210618_BUS_172172_joao_cancelo_1.jpg_22993414_9876b07a.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Joao Cancelo. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Joao Cancelo has reportedly been on Barcelona’s radar for the past two or three seasons. His versatility and ability to play on both flanks are some of the mainreasons why Ronald Koeman has made him a priority, and he could be swapped for Sergi Roberto.
<h2>1. Riyad Mahrez</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210618_BUS_172172_riyad_mahrez_1.jpg_22993414_bd1f4a95.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Riyad Mahrez. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
The Blaugrana have kept tabs on Riyad Mahrez since he played for Leicester City. And even though he’s far from his best, he’s still a valuable piece that could make a huge impact coming off the bench. The Citizens want to sign Harry Kane and/or Jack Grealish, so he’d lose a lot of ground if that happens.

João Cancelo
