JAKARTA - Barcelona president, Joan Laporta, said the club had reached their target in the transfer market this summer following the arrival of Marcus Rashford. He did not expect to recruit further.
Rashford became Barcelona's third signing on the transfer market after joining Manchester United on loan following goalkeeper Joan Garcia and young striker Roony Bardghji.
"We have achieved all of our targets for the coming season. In principle, there will be no more recruitment now."
"We have a good squad and a coach (Hansi Flick) who wants to strengthen the first team if needed with a young player from the reserve team," Laportta told Mundo Deportivo.
Barcelona's ability to register their new players will now depend on the players who leave.

However, Laporta insists the club doesn't need to let go of anyone they don't want to comply with La Liga's Financial Fair Play rules.
The club accepted the impetus on Friday, July 25, 2025, when they confirmed the departure of Pau Victor striker to Portuguese club Braga.
ESPN said that the deal could be worth up to 15 million euros.
"What will exist now is savings in terms of salary. Pablo Torre has gone (to Mallorca)."
"There are several other transfers to be completed soon, but I don't think any players will leave at large despite the offer."
"We don't want to break the spirit of the team that was built last season in the squad. That's what captivated the supporters again and we want to defend that miracle."
"We will try to avoid a painful departure. I will not discuss certain players because we are satisfied with all the players."
"However, there will be more adjustments as there are some positions where we have too many players now," Laporta said, speaking before Victor's departure.
Now, according to Laporta, Barcelona must save salaries in order to resume operations according to La Liga's financial regulations.
Therefore, he does not want any new players to come. Laporta wants his management to focus on finances that are in accordance with regulations first and then move again in the transfer market.
"We need to save on our salaries and there are several other things we're working on as a club."
"Everything is going according to plan and will allow us to register the players we have recruited," Laporta said.
Apart from that, the Blaugrana arrived in Japan on Saturday, July 26, 2025, ahead of their first Asian tour match against Vissel Kobe on Sunday, July 27, 2025, local time.
Rashford, Garcia, and Bardghji are all ready to make their debut appearances for the club. Meanwhile Flick has also called on young players, such as Diego Kochen, Guille Fernandez, Toni Fernandez, Pedro Fernandez, and Jofre Torrents to monitor.
