Xavi forces FC Barcelona to react after the failure with Endrick
The Barça coach is very upset at not having obtained the signature of the young star of Brazilian football and has asked the board of directors for the arrival of another very promising striker
It’s no secret that FC Barcelona was one of the many European clubs that were following in Endrick’s footsteps. The 16-year-old footballer from Palmeiras had Xavi publicly announce that he was working on signing him, as he was a player who fit perfectly with the project and with what they were looking for in a striker. But in the end he won’t wear azulgrana.
We have known this just a few days ago, because we know that another club has agreed to pay the termination clause stipulated in the footballer’s contract. A clause that has generated great debate, as a large amount of money will be paid for a footballer who has not had time to prove anything. Nevertheless, FC Barcelona was also willing to pay a lot for Endrick.
The reason why FC Barcelona has not signed Endrick
As we have recently learned, the club that has managed to secure the signing of the Brazilian footballer is Real Madrid. The group chaired by Florentino Pérez has once again gone ahead to sign a young talent, as it already did with Reinier, Rodrygo or Vinicius. Something that has angered Xavi, who supported the signing of a footballer who ended up heading towards his greatest rival.
Now that a few days have passed since we found out that Real Madrid will have to pay 70 million euros for the transfer, we have learned the reasons that have prevented FC Barcelona from completing the transfer. And this reason is none other than the economic aspect, which continues to stifle the Barça club despite the levers it activated last summer.
The striker that Xavi has requested after the failure with Endrick
In this way, once the signing of Endrick by Real Madrid is practically official, we have learned that the Barça club has other plans. This other plan is the signing of Moukoko, another of the most promising strikers in the world. At 18, he has already been included in the list for a World Cup and is a fixture at Borussia Dortmund.
However, the German club has not managed to extend his contract, which ends in June. The FC Barcelona is one of the clubs interested in his signingWell, considering that it is a great opportunity after the disappointment with Endrick. But it won’t be easy to convince the player, who also has an offer from Bayern Munich on the table. Now, all that remains is to wait to find out what his fate is. A destination that we will report on in elgolddigital.
