🚨 Pedri: “I love Julián Álvarez. I hope he joins Barcelona, I hope the deal happens”.
“He’s among the best players and we want the best at Barça”, told RTVE. 🔵🔴
🚨🥹❤️ Leo Messi: “I honestly don’t play thinking about how old I am but rather about how I feel physically. From there, I just try to give my maximum, regardless of my age, and give everything I have. The truth is that I feel physically good.
"I also feel very supported by this group and this team, which plays wonderful football and has incredible players both in attack and defense. It’s a team and a group that has been built over many years, that competes and never gets anything handed to them.
"I’m happy to keep contributing, helping, and being part of this group because we enjoy being together. Every day here is a very happy one.”
"And honestly, I’m happy to be here because, as I said before, I love playing. It’s what I’ve done my whole life, it’s what I enjoy, and hopefully I can keep doing it for a long time to come.”
Cuti Romero sintió una molestia en la misma rodilla de la lesión. Va a parar un par de días y volver.
No va a jugar vs Jordania. La buena noticia es que este golpe no lo deja afuera del Mundial.
🚨💣 Jamie Carragher blasts Real Madrid's "Barcelona obsession" after Bernardo Silva and Cucurella signings
🗣️: "At some point, people have to stop pretending this is a coincidence. Every time Barcelona identify a player, Real Madrid suddenly become interested too.
Barcelona wanted Bernardo Silva, and now Real Madrid have signed Bernardo Silva. Barcelona looked at Dumfries, and Madrid rushed to give a 30-year-old a long-term contract. Hansi Flick reportedly prefers Gvardiol, and suddenly Madrid are pushing for Gvardiol. Barcelona worked on Julian Alvarez, and Madrid responded with a ridiculous €150 million bid that they made sure the whole world knew about. Now Marc Cucurella has become another target the moment Barcelona showed interest.
This is not strategy; this is obsession.
The biggest clubs create their own path. They don't spend every summer looking over their shoulder to see what their rivals are doing. If your transfer policy is 'Whatever Barcelona want, we want too,' then maybe you don't have a real project at all.
I have seen rivalries all my life, but this goes beyond rivalry. It feels like some people in Madrid are more concerned about blocking Barcelona than building Real Madrid.
When a club starts defining itself through its rival, it has already forgotten what made it great in the first place."
😂 Atlético Madrid is just jealous of Barça, nothing more:
• Their greatest legend Antoine Griezmann decided to leave Atlético Madrid at the peak of his career to join Barcelona
• Their only world-class player doesn’t want to be there and wants to join Barcelona, Julian Alvarez
• Their top target this summer, Bernardo Silva, only wants to join Barça
• They can’t beat us on the pitch and need help from the referees to steal Barça
• They aren’t even a big club in Spain; the all-time top 3 are: Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Athletic Club
• They’ve been a disappointment in Spain for years and have spent far more than Barça over the last 5 years
A small team will always be a small team. Atlético, you’re not in the same league as FC Barcelona. Should know your place.
🚨🚨 #FreeJulian
Julián Álvarez is trapped in a prison:
- After another trophyless season, the player tells Atletico Madrid through his agents that he wants to leave the club this summer.
- He informs them of his priority to join Barcelona, especially with Lewandowski leaving and his childhood dream of playing for the club
- Barça meet with his agents and agree personal terms
- Meanwhile, instead of focusing on winning trophies, Atlético Madrid have chosen to play the victim card and make statements aimed at Barcelona, making disrespectful jokes
- Due to all the media pressure, Atleti have released a total of 5 fake parody statements because they’re scared of Barça signing their best player
Don’t get confused, Atlético. You’re not our rivals and you’re not sitting at the same table as Barcelona.
We need your help. Spread the message.

🗣 Albert Ortega: "People are asking where all this money is coming from for Gordon and Álvarez."
Barcelona have always been a money-generating machine. The problem was never the money. It was compliance with La Liga's financial controls and the salary cap blocking registrations, not the ability to spend.
Barcelona could always structure deals. The wall was always the economic control rules and whether new signings could actually be registered.
This summer that changes. The return to the 1:1 rule changes everything.
Lewandowski's departure. Camp Nou reopening. Sponsorship agreements. VIP suite sales. New commercial deals. Wage bill reductions. Every single one of those moved the needle.
After more than five years of operating with one hand tied behind their back Barcelona are entering this transfer market with real financial power and real room to move.
This isn't luck. This is five years of painful reconstruction finally paying off. 🔵🔴
