Barcelona director defends shock departures of SIX first-team players due to financial issues – with women's team set to lean on youth as more 'sustainable' strategy
Barcelona director Xavi O’Callaghan opened up on the departures of six crucial squad members this summer from their women's team. The Blaugrana lost the players due to their ongoing financial troubles, which forced them to offload some important players to reduce their wage bill. The Catalan giants, who begin the new season in three weeks, are currently left with only 17 first-team players.
