Joan Laporta’s major clean-up operation for Barcelona
Philippe Coutinho, Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezmann
The Catalan president has decided that apart from a few, everyone can be sold next season and yes, that even includes the likes of Coutinho, Dembele and Griezmann. Coutinho had yet another flop season with the club and after being their most expensive player in their history, Barcelona are probably ready to let go of him. The Brazilian had yet another injury-ridden season and Laporta will probably not let him stay around the club for another season. He can still bring in significant money for the Catalans and selling him next season would be the best thing to do.
Dembele and Griezmann had decent seasons this year however, even their places are not secure. Both of them can bring in close to 100 million euros each and that would be extremely useful for the club at the moment. Griezmann’s positive form recently can definitely help them break even if they decide to sell him.
