For several months, FC Barcelona has been interested in Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Hyland (21 years, 14 games and 16 goals in the Bundesliga this season), and is also approaching Real Madrid and Manchester City. In the face of many rumors linking the Norwegian with the Blaugrana, Catalan club president Joan Laporta calmed things down on Sunday.
“We are strengthening the team for next season. Matteo Alemani, Jordi Cruyff and all the technical secretariat are working to achieve this. There are additions that I understand that people are excited about but they are very difficult, because these are operations that we must not do even with a better economic situation. We must apply certain standards and rationality. We are here to manage a football team well, which is Barcelona, and although we have improved, the economic situation has not reversed “This is the priority, as well as building an increasingly strong team. We will be involved in everything, but we will not carry out any operation that could jeopardize the economic situation of the club,” the Barcelona president warned to TV3.
