Where will Barcelona get the 70 million for Gordon’s signing?

FC Barcelona

The addition of the English winger has been agreed upon, according to MD, for 70 million fixed plus 10 in variables. Gordon is expected to arrive in Barcelona this Thursday to make his signing official, a deal marked as a priority for both Deco and Hansi Flick.

The scenario that opens from there could benefit the Barcelona. Newcastle has set their sights on Ez Abde as a possible replacement for Gordon, and the Blaugrana club still holds 20% of the rights to the Betis winger.

Betis, in turn, is considering strengthening their attack with Jan Virgili if Abde ends up leaving. The forward belongs to Mallorca, although Barça reserved a 40% of a future sale when they transferred him last summer to the Balearic team for 3.5 million euros.

Everything depends on those deals being finalized and the final amounts they may involve. If Newcastle moves forward for Abde and Betis does the same with Jan Virgili, Barça would receive money for rights retained on both players, which would help reduce the economic impact of Gordon’s arrival.

The Blaugrana club seeks to bring in a young winger with experience and the capacity to sustain efforts in high pressing. In that context, Gordon’s arrival could trigger a series of linked moves involving players on whom Barça still maintains percentages of future transactions.
