Exclusive: Fabrizio Romano responds to claims Barcelona are pursuing free transfers

September 1, 2024La Liga

Barcelona have been linked with some possible moves for free agents now that the transfer window has closed.

However, Fabrizio Romano insists it’s all quiet at Barca at the moment and there’s nothing happening to take advantage of the fact that you can still sign free agents outside of the official transfer window.

Barcelona signed Dani Olmo and Pau Victor this summer, but it was an otherwise quiet summer for them as some big names also left the club, with Ilkay Gundogan leaving to return to Manchester City, while last season’s loanees Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix didn’t stay.

Barcelona have started well under new manager Hansi Flick, however, so they might be happy with their current squad, as it seems they’re not currently working to snap up anyone else now that the season has got started.

“Finally, it’s been reported that Barcelona are waiting on their deal with Nike to be signed and are then looking at some free transfer signings outside of the window,” Romano said.
