Barcelona have been trying to pull off a number of sales of La Masia starlets in recent weeks, with the club looking to make a profit from the academy.<\/p>\n

With the first-team squad crowded with talent, Bar\u00e7a are keen to sell players to enhance their development while retaining control over their future.<\/p>\n

Now, according to Nil Sola<\/a>, the club are working on departures for Hector Fort, Jofre Torrents and Tommy Marques.<\/p>\n

If Barcelona secure their desired figures across the three operations, the combined income could reach approximately \u20ac26 million.<\/p>\n

Fort could bring in \u20ac10 million<\/p>\n

Fort is attracting considerable interest after finding his pathway into Hansi Flick\u2019s first team increasingly difficult.<\/p>\n

A transfer worth between \u20ac8 million and \u20ac10 million is being discussed for the young defender, who has suitors across Europe.<\/p>\n

Borussia Dortmund have emerged as a potential destination<\/a> for the talented Spaniard, with the German club keen on signing him.<\/p>\n

Barcelona\u2019s challenge will be ensuring they do not completely surrender control over a player who still has significant potential.<\/p>\n

The club will ideally look to move him with a percentage of a future sale and a buy-back clause included in the deal.<\/p>\n

Jofre set for \u20ac6 million Ajax move<\/p>\n

Jofre Torrents is another academy player heading towards the exit.<\/p>\n

The left-back is expected to join Ajax in an operation worth around \u20ac6 million, providing Barcelona with another useful injection of transfer income.<\/p>\n

Again, Bar\u00e7a have been keen to protect themselves for the future when selling their best young players.<\/p>\n

The club will look to have an agreement with the Dutch club should they wish to bring back Jofre in the future.<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a want \u20ac10 million for Tommy Marques<\/p>\n

Tommy Marques could generate the largest individual fee of the three.<\/p>\n

Sola reports that Barcelona want approximately \u20ac10 million for the midfielder and are looking to secure a significant financial return from his departure.<\/p>\n

Marques had previously been in contention for a permanent first-team role after impressing Flick, but the midfield picture has changed dramatically following the move for Rodri.<\/p>\n

Rather than keeping him without a realistic route to regular minutes, Barcelona are now prepared to sanction a transfer.<\/p>\n

La Masia becoming an important financial asset<\/p>\n

If Bar\u00e7a receive \u20ac10 million for Marques and Fort and \u20ac6 million for Jofre, the three deals would produce a sum of \u20ac26 million.<\/p>\n

That is meaningful money for a club still navigating financial troubles and looking to be efficient in the transfer window.<\/p>\n

There is always a danger in selling academy talent too early, particularly with players this young.<\/p>\n

Barcelona therefore need to negotiate protections such as buy-back clauses or significant sell-on percentages wherever possible.<\/p>\n

However, it would make no sense to keep talents in the squad without providing them with a proper pathway.<\/p>\n

If Bar\u00e7a manage to sell these three players for a combined fee of \u20ac26 million, it will be a good piece of business from the Catalans, and it remains to be seen how things play out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Barcelona have been trying to pull off a number of sales of La Masia starlets in recent weeks,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":70187,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[92,222,223,4009,12717,8120],"class_list":["post-70186","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-barcelona","tag-barcelona","tag-barcelona-news","tag-fc-barcelona","tag-hector-fort","tag-jofre-torrents","tag-tommy-marques"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70186","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70186"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70186\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/70187"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70186"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70186"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70186"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
