Posted by Barcelona reported this week that they are £1.15 billion in debt, following years of mismanagement that have placed them in a spiraling financial disaster. With the Catalan giants in dire straits, president Joan Laporta is trying to slash spending substantially in an attempt to get the club back on track and keep it afloat.
But, in order to decrease the club’s massive wage expenditure, who is at risk of being shown the door? Barcelona players that could be sold in the next weeks are examined by flipmemes.
Coutinho has struggled to find his feet since his £145 million move from Liverpool in 2018, and he appears to be on his way out.
Barcelona even moved him on loan to Bayern Munich in 2019 to get him off their books for a while, but despite their Champions League success together, the German club decided not to make the move permanent.
