Deco, aware of the delicate economic situation, is already working on restructuring the squad for the next season. Selling is a necessity, and there are several names on the table, among them Araújo and de Jong, both with great appeal. However, they are not the only ones on the list of possible departures, and for months, there have been others who are likely to leave, and negotiations are underway.
Ansu Fati, an Imminent Departure
Ansu Fati's case is one of the most concerning: he once wore Barcelona's number "10" jersey, but he has lost all his prominence. This season he has only played 187 official minutes, an alarming figure for an striker who, not long ago, was seen as the future of the club. Hansi Flick doesn't count on him, and his transfer is a priority, and Deco is already working on his departure, although he must find the right place.

While Ansu Fati is the most high-profile case, he won't be the first to pack his bags. In recent months, several operations have been on the table, but one in particular has progressed quickly. Barcelona has found a buyer, and in the coming weeks, the departure of one of Flick's discards will be made official.
Iñaki Peña, Heading to Betis
The first transfer Deco closes is that of Iñaki Peña, who had several options, but everything indicates that his destination will be Betis. For weeks, there was talk of Celta de Vigo's interest, but the Andalusian club in the race for his signing and Manuel Pellegrini seeks to strengthen the goalkeeping position fits. Negotiations are very advanced, and the operation could be finalized shortly.

Despite Betis being the most viable option, Celta remains alert to the situation, as they also need reinforcements. Iñaki Peña has been Ter Stegen's backup during previous seasons, and his desire is to find a destination where he can enjoy continuity. As of today, Betis has the advantage, but no scenario can be ruled out.
Deco Continues Working on Barcelona's Departures
Iñaki Peña's departure is just the first move in a market that promises to be very intense. Deco continues working on more departures to alleviate the club's finances and make room for possible signings. Araújo and De Jong are the names with the most appeal, but there are other footballers who could leave if interesting offers arrive.
