Barcelona are still looking to raise money in the transfer market this summer, as they look to bring in Nico Williams or Dani Olmo. It means a large chunk of their squad remain on the exit list.
In addition to Vitor Roque, who Barcelona are willing to shop, The Athletic report that there are seven more players Barcelona are looking to move on at the right price. Perhaps the most well-documented are Frenkie de Jong, Ronald Araujo and Raphinha. Injuries to the former two have ruled out sales, while the latter has made it clear he has no desire to leave.

In the overstocked central defensive department Clement Lenglet and Mikayil Faye remain two sales that Barcelona are looking to make. Lenglet’s high salary makes him a prime candidate to move on, while nobody has yet met Faye’s €20m asking price. Porto were credited with interest, but that trail has gone quiet. Ansu Fati is another player Barcelona had planned to sell, but he has picked up an injury too.
Perhaps the biggest surprise on their list is Ferran Torres. There has been much less transfer talk about the €55m signing than others in the Barcelona squad, with other reports claiming he more or less has his spot in the squad assured, as a versatile rotational option behind Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal, and whoever occupies the left side. The 24-year-old struggled with injuries last season, but was their joint-second top scorer alongside Fermin Lopez.
