After watching Isaac s transfer farce, I realized how humble Barcelona is now in the transfer market.

At the last moment before the summer window closed, Barcelona fans had a glimmer of hope to sign a world-class center. This person is Alexander Isak, the Swedish god striker. A divine front in the dream that Laporta is thinking about.

However, when Newcastle United labeled him the label of 170 million euros, the signing drama ended early for Barcelona before it really started.

Sports Director Deko's dream hit the cold reality of the club's finances, leaving only deep powerlessness.

Isaac's open break

This should have been Barcelona's best opportunity.

Isaac, due to differences with the Newcastle Club on the terms of the contract, has staged a public break. He made it clear on social media: I will not play for Newcastle anymore and asked to leave the team.

When a top star takes the initiative to push himself into the transfer market, it usually attracts crazy competition among European giants. Barcelona is naturally among them.

170 million euros

Newcastle's attitude is extremely tough. They hold Isaac's long-term contract until 2028, and they are full of confidence. Their response is: If you want to buy it, please give out 170 million euros. The astronomical number

is nothing different from a fantasy for Barcelona today. You know, the reason why Isaac is so valuable is because he used 27 goals and the winning goal worth a thousand gold in the League Cup final last season to help Newcastle break through the 70-year championship drought.

Newcastle's tough asking price became the last straw that broke the signing of Barcelona's dream.

Deko's helplessness

Faced with such harsh negotiations, even the powerful sports director Deko could only be discouraged.

What makes Barcelona fans even more heartbroken is that while Barcelona can only quench their thirst due to financial issues, Liverpool has quietly entered the game. The offer issued by the Red Army is very attractive, and the two sides are currently discussing the final contract details. This means that Barcelona not only cannot buy the players they like, but they are also likely to watch him and join a direct Champions League competitor.

In the transfer market of modern football, dreams, feelings... are no longer important. A cold bank account is the only criterion that determines everything.

Barcelona once had the opportunity to fight for a world-class center, but in the end they were not even qualified to play on the poker table.

This is what makes Barcelona fans feel more sad than missing a player.
