Five tasks Barcelona director Deco still needs to complete this summer

Barcelona’s summer transfer window has not quite gone to plan. None of the management’s objectives are close to fruition and it is clear that there is still a long way to go. 

Less than 15 days remain before the team takes to the field for the first game of the season. There has still been no tangible either on the departure or the arrival front.
