Barcelona rush to seal transfers before June 30 deadline
Barcelona enter the final stretch of June with a 30 June deadline shaping their transfer strategy. The club must conclude several operations before the end of the month to ensure deals count toward this season’s accounts, while avoiding costlier negotiations from 1 July.
Inaki Pena’s exit appears the most advanced, with the goalkeeper close to joining Panathinaikos for around €3 million. The move would ease goalkeeping congestion and align with Hansi Flick’s squad plans. Ansu Fati’s potential move to Monaco involves an €11 million option, though Barcelona continue negotiating future control terms including a sell-on percentage and buy-back clause.
Marc Casado is exploring his options, while Roony Bardghji is expected to leave on loan to further his development. Marc-Andre ter Stegen remains a complex case due to contract, salary, and market uncertainties.

Jorge Salinas is another priority, with Barcelona aiming to finalize his move before 30 June. His clause rises from €4-8 million to €16 million from 1 July, making timing critical. The Racing Santander defender is viewed as a strategic signing by the club. The deal for Joao Cancelo remains complicated, with Al Hilal reportedly unwilling to ease financial demands. Barcelona’s sprint to conclude transfers is not just about paperwork but about delivering a cleaner squad to Flick, creating registration space, and avoiding preventable market errors.
