Joan Laporta has taken advantage of Depay's presentation to review the Barça news. The president has made it clear that there is good will from LaLiga and Tebas to find a solution to the issue of the salary limit. He has also highlighted the attitude of the players with whom he is speaking to adjust their salaries. In addition, he has recognized for the first time that Barça can register the players he signs and has left the door open for Griezmann. On the other hand, he ensures that the Messi issue is progressing properly and admits that Umtiti and Pjanic are on the starting ramp.

"The players that we are incorporating can be registered, be it Mephis, Kun or Eric. You know the restrictions that are motivated by the heritage that we have. The ratio that we have does not make it easy for us. We are working very well with LaLiga, Mateu Alemany is doing a great job because we have to follow the rules even though we think they are stricter than in other countries. We are confident that either by reducing the wage bill or with some formula accepted by the League, we are seeing good will on the part of the organization and its president. He is the first interested in great footballers like Memphis coming and playing here, but there are some rules. The players are having a very good reaction and are understanding. They are listening to the proposals and looking for solutions"

Messi

The player has always said that he wants to continue, there is no doubt about that. We are making progress in all the negotiations involved in a contract of this type. They are working very well and it is a wish that we all have. We do not hide the will that we want him to continue, that he be there for many years."

Missing?

"In due course you will know the note and what we are working for, but I will not go into details. It is progressing well, we are all very satisfied."

Griezmann

"He is a Barça first team player, he has a valid contract and we have him. There have been movements.

Barter with Saul

"The market is starting, practically nothing has changed. All the clubs are in certain difficulties. Players like Griezmann have a market, there are interested clubs and we are building our squad looking for financial balance. We are delighted with him and we are all professionals. Yes the market moves, we are open to all proposals because we are in a delicate moment and we are talking to all the first team players to see how they breathe so that the balances harm them as little as possible".

Pjanic and Umtiti

"Above all, we respect the players, they are the best we have in the club. We speak with them honestly, clearly and directly. These two had little prominence, but they have worked very well in preseason. If we have reservations about how they can be, we'll tell them"

Germany, director of football

Umtiti and Pjanic

"They are two prestigious players with important careers. They only had a few minutes and they know the possibilities they will have. We are evaluating the option of leaving with their agents. They are the first interested in having a leading role".

Griezmann

"We value Griezmann a lot, he is top level and we are very happy. Given our situation we have been open but it will not be easy for someone to come with an important offer".
