This Is The Proof That Barcelona Use Shady Methods To Recruit The Top Players

Barça is one of the most attractive clubs in the world. A sublime stadium, a huge list of achievements, a clear identity and very lucrative salaries: Barcelona meets all the criteria to welcome the best players on the planet. However, when it comes to negotiating with the biggest stars, the Catalan club seems to be using a method that does not match its reputation.

Like Antoine Griezmann, Neymar did not show up for the official resumption of training in Paris. However, both players are in full negotiation with the Catalans. And when you look at it more closely, it's not the first time this has happened!

It is impossible to forget the clash between Ousmane Dembélé and the Dortmund club, which is renowned for its discipline and its good management of both those who are coming in and those leaving. Even Cesc Fabregas, also known for his class on and off the pitch, did not show up for training when he left Arsenal for Barça. In Liverpool, it was Coutinho who missed training with his team-mates in order to have a better start with Barça a few days later...

While neither Neymar nor Griezmann are currently Barça players, it would appear that the method used to achieve this goal is the same. Is this a particular request from the Barça leaders to speed up negotiations and put pressure on clubs that are not necessarily selling at the beginning? There is no evidence to the contrary…
