Lautaro Martinez looks likely to become a Barcelona player, but the negotiations have slowed because of the coronavirus crisis.
The newspaper ‘Sport’ reports an alleged list of six players that Barcelona has given the Italian club as a bargaining chip for the Argentine.
However, there are doubts about whether Barcelona will be able to make large transfers in the midst of a furlough. According to the newspaper ‘AS’, Barça has a positive answer to this question and believes that there should be no problem.
Barcelona knows that all its accounts will be controlled by the state, but they are not worried, as the furlough was applied to a large part of the club’s staff, but not the first team, as Barcelona players accepted a 70% salary reduction. That’s where Lautaro’s transfer could come in.
The agreement could reach 60 million euros plus two players, and it will be closely monitored by the government, who will be on the lookout for those staff members who have been furloughed.
However, the first thing that Barcelona will do is to control the budget and lower the team’s wage bill in order to survive the crisis. No crazy transfers expected.
