It appears that German coach Hansi Flick is not content with limited reforms but rather seeks to bring about a real revolution within the Catalan team. Flick, known for his tactical discipline and clear vision, has already begun developing a roadmap for the upcoming season, which includes bold decisions regarding the fate of several players who are not part of his future plans. The next phase at Camp Nou appears to be decisive, as Flick aims to build a competitive team capable of returning Barcelona to the continental forefront, without hesitation in making decisions that may shock some.
In light of this, Barcelona is preparing for a summer transfer market massacre, releasing several players, some of whom are likely to leave, while others appear certain to depart for one reason or another. At the forefront of those leaving the team is Ansu Fati, whom Barça is already negotiating a loan move to French club Monaco with an option to buy, following a difficult season. Pablo Torre has accused German coach Hansi Flick of unfairly limiting his playing time due to a lack of minutes. He is expected to struggle even more for opportunities after Marc Bernal recovers from injury.

Goalkeeper Iñaki Peña’s exit was described by the Spanish newspaper Marca as almost certain, having been confined to the bench. With the arrival of Juan Garcia and the return of Marc-André ter Stegen, he will have three goalkeepers ahead of him, so he will likely leave, even though he has offers from abroad to depart from the Blaugrana.
Pau Víctor could also find himself out of the team. While he hasn’t played much, Barcelona has yet to make a decision on his future. Coach Flick will assess his situation after the summer break and may only retain him if a new winger is not signed.
Uruguayan defender Ronald Araújo’s future with Barcelona is uncertain, given his decline in form and the improved performances of Iñigo Martínez and Pau Cañero. His options for departure are further enhanced by the fact that his release clause will drop to €70 million in early July.
Frenkie de Jong is also on the list of players who could leave Barcelona, despite his assertion that he is happy at the club and wants to renew. If the agreement is delayed, the club may consider selling his contract to avoid losing him for free at the end of the new season.
The last name on the list is goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, who is in the most complicated situation, as he is determined to remain with the team and honor his contract until 2028, despite the arrival of Juan Garcia from Espanyol and the continued presence of Wojciech Szczęsny. According to Marca, the departure of the goalkeeper, who earns €20 million annually, from the Blaugrana will not be easy.
