According to Marca, Barcelona is unlikely to make any further major signings before the summer transfer window closes. Unless there is a significant change regarding Julián Álvarez's transfer or a sudden shift in his stance, no additional big-name arrivals are expected. The club has deliberately preserved financial space to reinforce their attack in the January transfer window.

Hansi Flick is very satisfied with the team's performance in La Liga's first two rounds. Barcelona defeated Elche and Athletic Bilbao consecutively, scoring 7 goals across both matches while keeping clean sheets. Despite Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres being sidelined, the club has shown exceptional attacking efficiency without reinforcements. Both coaching staff and management viewed a striker signing as a priority.

However, Julián Álvarez—the club's sole striker target—has not changed his mind, and Atlético Madrid's refusal to negotiate has derailed Barcelona's plans. With Atleti's firm stance, Barcelona's recent attacking performances, and Raphinha already scoring 3 goals as a false nine (level with Fermín López), the club has suspended pursuit of alternative strikers. It's either Julián Álvarez or no other striker will arrive.

That said, Barcelona has not completely closed the door on January reinforcements. Depending on the team's goal-scoring record, injury situation, and available market options over the coming months, a number 9 striker could still be signed in January.

For these reasons, Barcelona is not expected to finalize major signings in the final days of the summer window. The club wants to maintain sufficient financial flexibility to sign a top-tier striker in January if needed. Club officials confirm that the accounts align. If major sales like Casadó (expected to generate €25-30 million) are completed, or players such as Héctor Fort (valued at approximately €15 million) depart, Barcelona would not rule out signing another player if Hansi Flick requests it.

The position most likely to be reinforced is center back. With Araújo already departed and Álvaro Correia set to leave soon, Hansi Flick still has many options including Kúbarsi, Gerard Martín, Koundé, Christensen, and Eric García. Over recent days, Hansi Flick and Deco have been discussing what decision to make. In any case, new signings depend on whether the club can maintain sufficient financial flexibility to sign a striker in January. Club management is not wasting time and is actively pursuing this strategy.
