The transfer window may be closed, but Barcelona are still doing a lot of work behind the scenes. Contract renewals have been the focus in recent weeks, although the 2025 market is still something that is focused on by the club's sports department, led by sporting director Deco.
Joan Laporta is also involved, and on Thursday, the two met with the super-agent Jorge Mendes, with whom both have a close relationship. As reported by Jijantes (via MD), the trio held a summit in a restaurant in Barcelona.
The exact reason for the meeting is unknown, although there is speculation that Lamine Yamal's contract renewal could be on the agenda. As for possible transfer targets, the FC Porto goalkeeper is represented by Mendes, and Deco is believed to be a big fan of the Portuguese international.
Despite the ill finances of the club, it remains a very busy time for Barcelona. And it promises to stay that way as 2025 approaches.
