As the 2025 summer transfer window nears its close, FC Barcelona has identified five key players who could depart in the final days.
FC Barcelona is bracing for potential last-minute exits as the summer transfer window enters its final phase.
With the majority of players not in the club’s long-term plans already moved on, the Blaugrana are now focusing on the remaining squad dynamics.
The final 15 days of the transfer window, which ends on September 1, 2025, could see significant developments, particularly as the pre-season concludes and players gain clarity on their roles for the upcoming La Liga season.
The club’s ongoing Asia tour has allowed for extensive rotation, but a clearer hierarchy is expected to emerge as competitive matches begin.
While high-profile names like Marc-Andre ter Stegen were initially considered for departure, his recent injury and surgery have ruled out any move.
However, other key players, including Robert Lewandowski, Ronald Araujo, Marc Casado, and Fermin Lopez, remain valuable assets in the transfer market, according to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo.
These players could attract interest from other clubs if they seek more prominent roles elsewhere.
The increased prominence of academy players this season has intensified competition within the squad, potentially leaving some established stars with reduced playing time.
Barcelona is aware that such dynamics could prompt certain players to reconsider their futures.
As the transfer window deadline approaches, Barcelona’s first three La Liga fixtures—against Mallorca (August 16), Levante (August 23), and Rayo Vallecano (August 31)—will provide further insight into the squad’s pecking order.
This period will be crucial for players assessing their minutes and roles under Hansi Flick’s management.
Despite President Joan Laporta’s earlier statement ruling out major sales, the club remains open to negotiations if players express a desire to leave.
The depth of the current squad and the high level of competition mean that Barcelona are prepared for unexpected developments.
As the transfer window nears its close, the football world will be watching to see if any Blaugrana stars make a late move.
