After deciding to stay at the helm of FC Barcelona’s project, Xavi is aware of the importance of bolstering his squad’s capabilities. Now, it seems he has approved a strategic operation to enhance the team’s strength.
The free agent market is gaining momentum for an FC Barcelona that has long been in a really delicate financial situation.
Given these circumstances, its leaders have been forced to perform intricate financial balancing acts and juggles to remain competitive off the field. This is key to regaining their greatness in Spain and Europe.
Clearly, their coach Xavi Hernández has a lot to say in the restructuring of his squad for the 2024-2025 campaign.
Moreover, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the native of Terrassa has green-lighted an operation. Specifically, a decision he has already communicated to Deco, his sporting director.
Guido Rodríguez fits into Xavi’s plans
As the mentioned source indicates, Xavi has already approved the arrival of Guido Rodríguez (30 years old), who will head to Barcelona in a cost-free move.
After being crucial in the midfield for Real Betis, the midfielder will bid farewell to the green-and-whites to join the ranks of the Blaugrana.
In theory, the Argentine will sign a contract with Barça for two seasons, with the possibility of extending it for an additional year.
The player’s departure will be a significant loss for Manuel Pellegrini’s team in Heliópolis, so the Catalans will make a significant impact with the signing of Guido.
