Barcelona have been scrambling in the final days of the transfer market in order to try and cover the injury of Marc Bernal. The 17-year-old has had a tidy start to his season, making three starts, but has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
A loan move for Stefan Bajcetic at Liverpool fell through with Barcelona unable to provide financial guarantees to La Liga, and their salary limit situation is set to rule out another arrival. Fabrizio Romano has commented on The Daily Briefing that Adrien Rabiot‘s salary would likely be four times that of Bajcetic’s, and thus any deal currently is impossible.

The 29-year-old French midfielder has been frequently linked with the Blaugrana over recent years, and is a free agent after leaving Juventus. Romano says that Rabiot is still awaiting the right opportunity though. If Barcelona were to be able to move for him, they would be requiring a different role from the ex-Paris Saint-Germain man, given he has tended to play further forward.
PAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH
Another failed target?
No depth, no party. 0 trophy season incoming.
