- Would FC Barcelona need to take a harsh step with their sensational forward?
The last few days have been very eventful for FC Barcelona, and we have seen things going in the right direction for them. From a convincing preseason performance to Olmo's signing and their ongoing pursuit of a high-profile winger, Barcelona has been enjoying favorable fortunes. However, the recent update regarding their sensational forward's Barca future might shatter their ongoing run.
It is well known that even in the presence of star players like Robert Lewandowski, Ilkay Gundogan, Jules Kounde, and others, the star of Barca's US Tour was a 22-year-old, newly brought-in star. Scoring three goals and providing an important assist in the AC Milan fixture, Pau Victor emerged as the find of the preseason tour. But, even after having such a brilliant run, the youngster's first-team presence looks unclear.
Would FC Barcelona need to take a harsh step with Pau Victor?
Being Flick's favorite and well-adorned at the club, everyone at Barca wants him to be in the next season's first team setup. However, being unregistered at the first team, chances are that he might miss Barca's XI next season. According to recent reports, the Blaugrana club is waiting for the registration, but if it is not resolved, Barca might need to take a harsh step.
The report suggests that if Pau's situation doesn't improve by the last week of August, the club might loan him or give him a subsidiary number. Though the chances are considerably high in favor of Pau's availability on the first team, a potential move in case of him being unregistered isn't ruled out.
Analyzing the situation from a neutral perspective; Pau Victor's case still stands stronger than continuing at Barca. Given the club's latest sale of Julian Araujo for €10 million, the Blaugrana club has some additional salary space for Pau. In addition to this, Barcelona is close to departing Vitor Roque and Clement Lenglet, which would create a considerable salary space.

With Lenglet being one of the highest salaried individuals at the club, his departure assures an easy registration for Pau Victor. However, with Lenglet's Atleti deal still in its initial stages, Barca would hope to close it as soon as possible to have Pau Victor associated with the first team soon.
