Mingueza is undergoing a medical examination with Celta de Vigo, a club with which he has reached an agreement to play for the coming seasons. According to sources close to those involved, the operation would have been paid for free, but Barça would keep a percentage of the future sale.
With the departure of the youth squad, the culé exit operation is activated, and there would be several players close to leaving since they do not count for Xavi. These are Riqui Puig, Braithwaite, Umtiti and Neto, that due to the breadth of the squad and the signings, they would have been left without a place in the team.
The Blaugrana team does not rule out that there are more exits, but these are mandatory. In the case of Riqui Puig it is complicated, because his stagnation has meant that he has only received offers from the MLS. The player wants to wait for an offer from European clubs, but if before August 4 he does not accept the offer from the Los Angeles Galaxy, he will not be able to go to MLS, since he ends the deadline for registrations in the United States.
On the other hand, Braithwaite has not shown that he is made to play for FC Barcelona and a team is being sought for him, but the high salary complicates everything. The club would be willing to let him go free if he renounces the remaining years of his salary, which would make it easier for him to find a team in LaLiga.
On the other hand, Umtiti would be one of those who are closest to leaving the club, he did not even travel with the squad and is in Barcelona training on his own, while he decides on his future. Olympiakos is very interested in his loan, but the only way for them to accept is for the Frenchman’s high salary to be shared by both clubs.
And finally Neto, the substitute goalkeeper, would be another of those chosen to transfer. The club wants to bet on Iñaki Peña, and thus they could get rid of Neto’s file, which still has a market. The Brazilian goalkeeper would have the interest of Napoli, but finally this team would have opted for Kepa.
