Barcelona President Joan Laporta recently discussed the club’s transfer plans, providing some insightful details. Known for his straightforward approach, Laporta expressed confidence in registering Ronald Araujo with La Liga, despite the delay in his official registration. He stated that they are working towards registering Araujo and their new signings by the end of the window, highlighting that the transfer market has just begun.

Laporta revealed that the club’s primary focus is on improving the defense, with additional reinforcements planned if necessary exits occur. In terms of midfield, Laporta confirmed that there will be one more signing based on the coach’s request.
