After a summer marked by financial constraints, Hansi Flick continues to monitor opportunities that could help strengthen Barcelona’s squad without burdening the club with excessive costs.
In this context, the German coach is paying particular attention to players whose contracts are nearing expiration, as they can be signed without the need for a transfer fee.
According to reports from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, Hansi Flick, who closely follows the European transfer market, has shown serious interest in signing one of the players whose contracts will soon expire.
Flick is looking to bolster the attack, which aligns with Barcelona’s plans as well. However, Rafinha may find himself in a difficult position if this deal goes through, as Leroy Sané plays in the same position. Flick, having worked with Sané at Bayern Munich, is well aware of his capabilities.
Before taking any steps, however, the club’s management must carefully assess its financial situation. Despite challenges related to salaries and compliance with financial fair play regulations, Barcelona does not want to miss the opportunity to sign a player of Leroy Sané’s caliber without incurring a transfer fee.
Leroy Sané was a potential target for Barcelona a few months ago, but the high cost of the deal at the time prevented it from materializing. With his contract with Bayern Munich set to expire in the summer of 2025 and no renewal in sight, Sané has become a more realistic option for the Catalan club. Hansi Flick is closely monitoring the situation, viewing him as a valuable addition to the attack.
If Sané is signed, it would represent a significant step for Barcelona. The club would acquire a top-class player without paying a transfer fee, which perfectly aligns with their current financial constraints. Moreover, Sané’s attacking style differs from Rafinha’s, which would add greater variety to Barcelona’s offensive options.
This would provide Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski with a new attacking partner, strengthening Barcelona’s frontline. Hansi Flick has given his full support to the deal, which is now just awaiting official confirmation.
However, the official details of the transfer are likely to take longer, potentially until the summer, especially since Sané has not yet renewed his contract with Bayern. Nevertheless, Barcelona’s strong interest in the player remains unwavering for the time being.
