It's been a busy summer so far for Barcelona, and the final days of the transfer window show no sign of being any less chaotic. If anything, the madness will be turned up a notch.
??The Catalans still have a number of deals left to do, and the two most pressing are the departures of Memphis Depay and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. They need the pair gone so that they can register Jules Kounde to play, preferably for this weekend's game at Real Sociedad.
Umtiti is off to Italy
Samuel Umtiti is on his way to southern Italy to join Serie A newcomers Lecce. The Salento side want him on loan, and they are in talks with the Catalans to find an agreement.
Martin Braithwaite is another play who has had the door opened to him, but there is no way for his contract to be terminated as the Dane wants to be paid off with a sizeable sum that the club are not keen to agree to.
Xavi has no plans for Dest
Sergino Dest is another player with no real future at the club, and Xavi Hernandez has made that clear more than once, even saying in his press conference that Dest "knows the situation".
Manchester United are interested.
Balde could be used
Barcelona want two full-backs on each side, and Alejandro Balde could stick around and a role could be found for him. They are eyeing signings for full-back as well though, most notably Marcos Alonso on the left.
Abde or a new striker
Aubameyang and Memphis will leave the club, and they aren't ruling out bringing in a low-cost goalscorer to replace them, which would of course impact on Abde's situation.
Pablo Torre's loan??
Then there's Pablo Torre's future. The club want him to be in the first-team setup and to play with the B team, but Xavi hasn't ruled out an exit on loan.

If there were players to be moved on, the first one would have Ferran Tores, the guy does nothing. He'll have to miss 7 shots to score one goal. That's a serious worst. there people who deserve to be given time to prove themselves, not Tores!

The problems is we gives more concerns on buying rather than sales & the last chances of both buying & sales is 31th August , 2022 and Laliga in on last week . While the league is on Barcelona looks worried to upload for the club to register Kaunda & possibly bring in other player to fill the gap of Jodi Alba , but all its depend on players that are willing to left within Ten days , the bad side of it the player that has no place in Xavi this season are not willing to corporates. Its only a good management or miracle can make it happened , we all have good hope for Barcelona to bounce back again this season .

12 goals and assists in his first 2 months at barca all in important games Providing runs and space for auba to score 13 goals Just because xavi overused him doesn’t mean he hasn’t done anything
