What BARCELONA is going to look like in 5 years? BARCELONA-2025: LINE-UP, TRANSFERS

Over the next two or three seasons, our leader will continue to be Leo Messi. But it's true that there are other young players who come to the club, both from aboard and from our academy. But we are already preparing for this era after Messi, said Barcelona president Jose Bartomeu in an interview with Sportes in November 2019. Indeed, the restructuring of Barcelona has begun. Young players with great potential come to the club. La Masia is full of talents. All that remains for the Catalans is to make right decisions for the team. And here, the question arises. Will it succeed? And it seems to us that everything will work out. Hello everyone! We saw how much you liked the format What will top clubs be like in five years? And of course, we decided to continue. As you might have guessed, Barcelona is next in turn. We assume that, with a high degree of probability, Lionel Messi will not remain in the capital of Catalonia as a player until 2025. Which means that a completely new era awaits us. The era of Barcelona without a great Argentinian. And this is truly intriguing. So, what will Barca be like in 2025? Let's try to figure it out. Let's go!

Subscribe, we'll be glad to see you there. Thanks in advance and let's get back to Barcelona. The club begins with the president. As you know, in the summer of 2021, Barcelona conducts the elections. There are several candidates. Current president José Bartomeu, Jordi Farré, Agustí Benedito, ex-president Joan Laporta and Víctor Font. Reading the Catalan media, Mundo Deportivo and Sport, we come to the conclusion that the main favorite is Víctor Font, whose program Si Al Futur is very popular among club members, which are called socios. Font has got the maximum support from La Masia. The backbone of the club should consist of the pupils of the academy. The potential candidate criticizes Barca's transfer policy, saying that with him, club will be more careful during the transfer windows, and his candidate for a coaching place will be good for each of the club members. This is Xavi. The current leadership was already making attempts to lure the legend, but Hernández refused in January. Xavi is closely associated with Font's project, and therefore there is a certain political motive for this decision. The coach of Qatari Alsat and ex-midfielder of the Catalan club decided to gain experience and moves to Camp Nou only when his candidate will take control. We expect that Xavi will become the Blaugrana coach in the summer of 2021, and then Barca's restructuring will finally be completed. Not all players of the current squad will stay in club until 2025, and the new Guardiola will head Barcelona. For position number one, the Catalans can be calm. Marc-Andre Ter Stegen is stable and very good. Already, the 27-year-old German is in top five of the best goalkeepers of the planet, and his ambitiousness says only one thing – he wants to be the best. Now Barcelona needs to extend the contract with Ter Stegen and increase his wage to at least 8 million euros per year. We are sure that the club's leadership understands this, and Marc-Andre will stay in the team until 2025. Well, from one hand, there is Nelson Sammedo. He is even progressing under Setien. From another hand, we cannot get rid of the feeling that Sammedo is simply not able to perform stably at the highest level. There is always something missing. The Portuguese is especially unstable in the attacking phase. This is not Dani Alves. It seems that here will definitely be changes. Adama Traore from Wolverhampton. That's what Barca needs. Moreover, Adama is a Barca's academy product. Traore is making lots of assists, he is tenacious and very fast. Here it is, a replacement for Dani Alves. Sergio Roberto will be a traditional replacing option for the right flank of defence. The centre of defence now is not the strongest part of the team. The need for changes in this line is very urgent. Pique will retire, which means that Barca will need a new leader. We see such a person represented by Matthijs de Ligt. Yes, we know the Dutchman choose Juventus in the summer of 2019, but this doesn't mean that the ex-player of Ajax to come now is closed. As a substitute, we see Eric Garcia from Manchester City, a pupil of Barcelona who is progressing on the Etihad. Our heart feels that Garcia will be in the Blaugrana's jersey again. Clément Langlais works really hard, but it seems that the Frenchman wouldn't stand it for a long time. Now he sometimes loses the competition to Fragilum TT. It seems that there will be new faces in the position of the left centre-back. We expect a reinforcement represented by Emerick Laporte, who is probably gonna leave Manchester City due to a recent ban. Barca is interested in the Frenchman, and the player himself doesn't mind to try his hand at Camp Nou. He will be competed by Dior Upamecano, whom we expect to see in the squad next summer. Another club's pupil comeback, Alejandro Grimaldo. Barcelona has been unsuccessfully trying to find a replacement for Jordi Alba for many years, but the Cotillons are just searching in the wrong place. Already for a long time in Benfica, Grimaldo is occupying the left flank. He is 24 and he is one of the most promising left-backs in Europe. Barca is definitely should to turn to his services. Another excellent and surefire option is Angelinho, who is now playing for Leipzig but belongs to Man City. Nevertheless, Barca is able to lure a talented Spaniard. The midfielder position. That's where structuring has already begun. Barcelona acquired Frenkie de Jong for 75 million euros and made an excellent investment for the future because the Dutchman is able to become the leader of the middle line. With the departure of Sergio Busquets, Frenkie will finally go in the defensive midfielder zone and from there will build all the attacks of Barcelona. Regarding to the organization of the game, de Jong is one of the best in the world. The substitution will be a pupil of Barca, Oriol Busquets, who in 2025 should grow into a quality footballer. There is one flaw in the current composition of the Cotillons. It seems that Barca doesn't yet have a real beast on the position of the right central half. And we are confident the Cotillons will enter the transfer market in order to get the maestro to this position. Fabian Ruiz from Napoli is a great option. Pass accuracy, creativity, goal orientation, stealing, he has got it all. It will be a worthy investment. The substitution will be one of the two pupils, Carles Salenya or Ilaix Moriba, who is already called the Cotillon Pogba. When Barcelona was buying a known name from Gremio for 31 million euros, many just thought they're crazy. Who is that? Is Barca insane? But in his first season, Arthur already proved everything to everyone. First of all, the Brazilians show his great potential. Comparisons with Javi started to appear, and this is the highest compliment in Barca. Arthur's signing is a real jackpot, and having such a talent as Ricky Puig in the team is a great happiness. Ricky is very creative, and his light manner reminds of early Andres Iniesta. In this position, everything's okay. There is one riddle, complex, viscous, and it's kinda getting old. What will happen to Ousmane Dembélé? This guy is an amazing talent who, however, doesn't like the regime. Constant injuries. And at the times great matches in which the Frenchman decides the outcome. Barca has invested a lot of money to sign Dembélé and continues to believe in his talent, because Ousmane is rightly one of the most promising winger of the planet. Speed, technique, goals, dribbling, and assist remains only to improve discipline and health. A one to substitute him will be Francisco Trincao. Neymar definitely wants to return to Camp Nou, and Bartomeu intends to buy the Brazilian by all means, so that Leo Messi will play the final seasons with his friend and in the legendary trio MSN. It seems that the return of Neymar is a matter of time. The Brazilian is a probable replacement of Leo Messi. In terms of his potential, Neymar is able to become the new leader of the Blaugrana. There's a feeling that the long-awaited return of the Brazilian will take place next summer. Neymar already has a successor. This is An Sufati, who is gaining his place in the first team. Barcelona is working on a transfer of Lautaro Martinez. Here's the same case as Neymar's, just a matter of time. If not this summer, so surely next. It looks like the days of Luis Suarez as the finisher of Barcelona's attacks are coming to an end, and the next season will be the last for the Uruguayan in the Barca jersey. Lautaro is a perfect replacement. Martinez works well with Messi in the national team, and is able to adequately replace Alpistolero. But who will he substitute for Lautaro is the question so far, but one thing is sure, it will unlikely be Griezmann. Actually, he is not doing great on Camp Nou. This is how we see Barcelona's squad in 2025. In fact, we expect an almost complete reload of the roster, with the exception of a few positions. There will be many departures and many transfers. In general, it will be very interesting, and most importantly, we will see Barcelona without Messi. This will be very sad, but at the same time, a football world was doing okay without Leo's talent. We will get used to it somehow. Although, for some reason, we are sure that Messi will not finish his career in 2025. He will play for Newell's Old Boys, for example, and we will have a great opportunity to study the Argentine Championship in a new way. Friends, how do you like our Barcelona squad for 2025?
