The price that Barça will pay for a ‘mysterious signing’ has been revealed

The financial report as of June 30, 2024 that FC Barcelona presented a few days ago allowed us to know the status of the litigation that the club has with players such as Dembélé, Agüero or Milito , or what is owed to other clubs for signings such as those of Lewandowski, Ferran Torres, Koundé or Raphinha. In this regard, an operation with a ‘mysterious footballer’ has also been revealed that the Barcelona club has not yet officially announced.

It is well known that the Catalan club has invested heavily in the African market in search of a new Mika Faye. The Senegalese centre-back has become a profitable transaction from an economic point of view, having been signed for 1.5 million euros and, just one season later, sold to Rennes for 10.3 million euros.

This season, David Oduro and Abdul Aziz have arrived at Barça Atlètic , two footballers, in this case Ghanaians, who have not yet been able to debut with the Barça reserve team due to the fact that they are still waiting to receive all the documentation, as happened to the prooio Mikayil Faye (already Mamadou Mbacke, currently injured) a year ago.

But there is a third, who in this case will arrive in the next transfer window, as we have to wait until the footballer turns 18 years old, after having successfully passed a trial at Barça Atlètic and the Barça Juvenil A. It is Ibrahim Diarra, a winger from Mali who was the great revelation of the last U-17 World Cup by scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists. His current club is African Foot, with which the Blaugrana club has already established links with a view to future signings, and which, in his case, has announced his signing for Barça.

But not so for the Blaugrana. Officially, because the report even revealed the cost of his signing. In the section on debts to other clubs, there is a short-term debt to CPF Africa Foot of 190,000 euros , and more than a million and a half for Ibrahim Diarra, which would mean an amount close to 1.7 million euros.

This would be the price for the transfer of a ‘mystery signing’… for which now, even the details of what Barça will pay are known.
