Journalist Luis Rojo has confirmed via MARCA that Barcelona have successfully registered Alejandro Balde and Fermin Lopez for the upcoming season, meaning that these talented young players will be able to participate fully with the team.

It must be noted that Balde and Fermin had renewed their contracts with Barcelona in September and August respectively.

However, despite having these new contracts, they could not play under the new terms because the club had not registered the increased terms of their renewals with the league. This was due to the club not having enough room in their salary cap for the next season.

Now, Barcelona have resolved this issue. They found some space in their salary cap, allowing them to register the full contracts of both players.

This means that the new coach, Hansi Flick, will be able to include them in the very first competitive match of the season.

There’s still work to do

Despite closing these two operations, the club’s work is not done yet. There are still more registrations to handle in the future.

Currently, Flick, and his staff members, followed by Vitor Roque and Inigo Martinez, are under contract with Barcelona, but they haven’t been officially registered yet.

The priority for Barcelona will be to register all the technical staff first and after that, they will address the players’ registrations based on the squad’s needs and the new coach’s preferences.

What is Barcelona’s preference?

Among the players, Roque might be the first to leave, given his limited role in the previous season. However, the final decision will depend largely on how he performs during the preseason.

In summary, while the successful registration of Balde and Fermin is a significant step forward for Barcelona, there are still important decisions to be made regarding the squad and the coaching staff.

The club is actively working to ensure that they can fit everyone into their salary cap and build a competitive team for the next season. Fans will be eagerly watching to see how these developments unfold and who will ultimately make the final squad.
