Hi Folks,
Just wanted to reach out to any readers or members of Barcadallas who have found us here in our little corner of the world wide web. In time, we plan to make this blog into a forum of sorts where many different opinions and viewpoints are expressed.
But , sadly for you, you are stuck with me for now.
I know I shouldn't be thinking so far ahead, considering the last Liga game is this Sunday, but I can't help but speculate as to what Laporta, Pep and Txiki will be up to this summer. Rumors are flying around that Juventus want Ibra to return to Italy for around $40 million Euros, and I think Barca would be silly not to consider this offer.
I don't necessarily want to see the big man go, but maybe the Spanish game is not for him. If they can get $40 million for him, this would essentially be a trade for David Villa, who would seem to fit perfect in this team.
Of course there's also the matter of a certain Catalan player who's been honing his craft across the pond for Arsenal. Laporta has said he'd like to sign Villa and Cesc before the World Cup and before the new elections, so things might start to happen next week.
*Please feel free to pose questions, comments or opinions about anything you see on this blog. We appreciate any and all feedback.*

I wonder how much of what I am reading/hearing is conjecture and how much is factual. I would be glad to see Villa signed, but hope Pep does something to strengthen the back line.
Great points. The back line, including a back up for dani alves, could be helped.
very nice article . however, Ibra must be seel for more than 40M . . . and what do you know about the Deal of Henry . . Is The Red Bulls pay something to Barcelona or Henry is leaving free?
Doesn't Henry have one more year on his contract with FCB? Then I read today that he signed a pre-contract with the Red Bulls.
Henry has one more year, but he's been trying to negotiate out of it. I think, without Barca having to pay anything more. Doubt they will get any payment for him.
Juventus said to offer $40-45 for Ibra and LaPorta wants to get a bidding war with them, Chelsea, and Man City, according to reports.
Also, Toure's agent says, 90% chance he leaves this summer.
