Barcelona have admitted that Dani Alves will be leaving the club but have ruled out any attempt to sign Hector Bellerin from Arsenal as his replacement.

The club’s sporting director Roberto Fernandez said on Thursday: ‘Dani has decided to go and we have to accept his decision. He has confirmed to the club that he wants to leave.

'We have to remember that he finished his contract a year ago but we could not sign anyone last summer because of the FIFA ban and so it was a difficult situation for us and he renewed. But now he is looking for the best option for him.’

i dodn't get real's obsession with alaba

alaba is the best LB in the world and a very versatile player in general. he's amazing

but they have like, the 2nd or 3rd best LB in the world. he's elite and there are very few elite LBs

are they hoping they can "bale" alaba in a winger role or something?

to avoid argument, alaba and alba are 1/2

he's right behind them

he doesn't even engage in "Bad marcelo" behavior that often anymore

Alaba can and does for Austria play center mid. He's also a great center back. He's one of the best players in the world, period. I'll be pissed if Bayern sells him but I don't expect it to happen since he just signed an extension to keep him in Munich until 2021

Real probably wants Alaba for stuff like this, which is something Marcelo, hell even Alba, can't really do.

i just can't imagine he's worth almost Ronaldo-level money. if bayern gets its desired sum, it would be around the 10th highest transfer ever

Him and Zouma would form the most athletic CB partnership in Premier League history.

Not in real danger of sanctions but always pushing the limit.

In building the current squad over the past few years-- which had massive debt when the new ownership group took over -- Roma has often sold players outright while buying players on deals deferred over years.


The likely Rudiger sale is a pretty good example:

Buy Rudiger for €9 and sell for €25 in this FFP window then buy a seemingly equal player like Umtiti for likely the same actual amount but after this FFP window and on deferred payments.


It means there will always be some turnover to keep books in line with FFP.

Fortunately, the majority of that turnover is now happening with all the talented youngsters out on loan.

Roma spends more for transfer fees on players like Sanabria, Ponce, Paredes, Gerson than they do on players actually on the roster.
.

The plan seems to be to postpone as many payments as possible until the new stadium opens.

Thomas Müller and David Alaba, IMO, are indispensable. I don't care how much a team would offer, Bayern doesn't need money. Never sell.

Pepe Reina's father said his son hasn't heard from Barcelona and Liverpool talk is a rumour, FWIW

Alves left Barca, he's supposed to already be in discussions with Juve. Looking for depth this year, going for Euro glory.


Barcelona ready to make a large bid for Pogba. If i'm Juve, i demand Alen Halilovic and a nice chunk of coin.
They hold all the leverage, Juve doesn't need or have to sell Paul.

Edit, Alen is croatia.
