Barcelona is seeking to regain its luster again after a very difficult season in which the Catalan team was unable to win any championship and left empty-handed.
The reform process began with the signing of German coach Hansi Flick, in whom Laporta hopes that he will be able to return Barcelona to its usual strength and get out of this difficult stage with the least losses.
In a television interview on Sky Sports, French legend Thierry Henry gave advice and a request to Laporta and Hansi Flick that would serve Barcelona before the start of the competition for titles next season.
Henry asked Laporta to quickly finalize the contract with Everton star, Belgian player Amadou Onana, a player whom Henry believes is the missing link in Barcelona’s squad, and signing him will add unprecedented strength to Barcelona’s midfield.
The legend Henry added: Amadou Onana reminds me of N’Golo Kante, as he can cover the entire field on his own, which will reflect positively on the strength of Barcelona’s attack next season and avoid counterattacks that constituted a nightmare for Barca last season.
Henry continued: Onana is the ideal partner for Pedri and Gundogan in Barcelona, as he possesses tremendous physical strength and height, has defensive awareness, skill in coverage, and excels in duels and joint balls.
He concluded that if Hansi Flick wants to succeed with Barcelona, he must sign this player, whatever the cost. Without him, the team will not succeed even if Messi returns again.
