New **Barcelona manager Hansi Flick** is wasting no time reshaping the squad to fit his high-tempo, attacking philosophy. With the **marquee signing of Marcus Rashford** now complete, the German tactician has made it clear: the next priority is **a top-quality winger** — and he wants the deal sealed **immediately**.
### Targets on Flick’s Radar
Barcelona’s shortlist of wide options includes three high-profile names — all with affordable clauses, but on a ticking clock:
* **João Cancelo**: Can be signed for **€15 million upfront**, or **€25 million** if performance-based variables are included.
* **Denzel Dumfries**: Available for **€25 million**, but only until **July 31** when his release clause expires.
* **Álex Grimaldo**: Has a buyout clause of **€18 million**, valid until **August 31**.
Each of these players brings a different profile, but all fit Flick’s system of **pace, width, and attacking support** from the flanks.
### The Financial Catch
Before any new signings can be registered, however, **Barcelona must clear €30 million** in wages or fees to stay compliant with **La Liga’s Financial Fair Play** regulations. That means **Rashford**, **Joan**, and **Rooney** — three crucial names already signed — **cannot be officially registered** until the club makes room.
This financial hurdle means that **outgoings or pay cuts** may be required in the coming days, and time is of the essence.
### A Crucial Week for Barça
All eyes are now on Barcelona’s front office. With the **clock ticking** and summer transfer deadlines approaching, this week will be **pivotal** in determining whether Flick gets the reinforcements he needs to compete at the highest level.
If the club can offload salaries or negotiate new terms in time, it could clear the path for another decisive transfer — and fully unlock Flick’s vision for a **rejuvenated Barcelona attack**.
