Better than Raphinha and for Free: Hansi Flick Wants Signing, Lamine Yamal Celebrates

Healthy competition for Lamine and a relief for Laporta's wallet: This signing is all pros and no cons.

After a summer marked by financial restrictions, Hansi Flick is keeping an eye on certain opportunities that could strengthen the team without excessive costs. In particular, the Barça coach is paying special attention to players who are out of contract, since they could join for free. Although the club's financial situation is uncertain, the sporting management is already working on possible signings to improve the squad.

Even Better than Raphinha and for Free: Hansi Flick Asks for his Signing, Lamine Yamal Celebrates

Hansi Flick, who closely follows the European market and is always on the lookout for top-quality players, has reportedly shown interest in one of these names. The German coach is looking to reinforce offensive positions, and Barça is on the same page. However, Raphinha could be in trouble if the signing is settled, as he plays in his position and already knows Flick from his time at Bayern Munich.

However, before making any move, the club's management must consider its financial situation. The wage bill and financial fair play remain a challenge for the Catalonian club, which is still looking for a way to balance the books. That is why a free signing like Leroy Sané cannot be missed.

Leroy Sané, what Hansi Flick is Looking for

Leroy Sané was already in Barça's sights a few months ago, but his signing never materialized due to the high cost of the operation. Now, with his contract about to expire, the German player could become a real option for FC Barcelona. His contract with Bayern expires in the summer of 2025, he has not yet renewed, and Hansi Flick is keeping a close eye on him.

The arrival of Leroy Sané, should it take place, would be a real bomb for Barça. The club would have the opportunity to sign a top-level player without having to pay a transfer fee, something that would fit in with the financial situation. In addition, Sané has a different profile from Raphinha, which would bring greater versatility to the team's offense.

In addition, Lamine Yamal and Lewandowski would have a new partner, so the arrival of Leroy Sané at zero cost is gaining more and more strength. Hansi Flick has already given the OK to the operation and it only needs to be made official. However, it seems difficult to have more details until summer, although at the moment Barça's interest remains firm and Sané has not renewed his contract.
