Not sure where he'll fit in really. He's probably more suited to Iniesta's position.

He plays in the pivot for Croatia. Behind Modric.

Rakitic will cost €15m and bonuses and will sign a 5 year contract with Barcelona, according to Sky Italia.

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
I am fairly confident he can play with Iniesta. He may have waken people to his ability by scoring goals and getting assists, however what stood out more to me was his ability on the ball, playing passes, receiving under pressure to add to his dynamism and general energy.
26, in his prime, i'd be satisfied and quite hopeful for him to do well.

A lot of Barca fans complained about Cesc's ability in tight spaces. How's Rakitic in that aspect?

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
Both Real Madrid and Atletico were also interested apparently.
Also Manchester United were according to Sky Italia.

Was about to say, whose to say others were not interested?
Anyway he's a better fit than Cesc which is what matters even if Cesc maybe a better player.

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
Barca offered higher wages it seems. 8 mill euros is definitely over the top wage for him..that is how it works in this competitive market though.
Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
what a steal, meanwhile we are busy figuring out how to spend 60 mil on pogba idiots

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
Barca offered higher wages..8 mill a year which is more than Di Maria earns here so yeah kind of understandable since we are not desperate and dont really want to break the wage structure.M99 wrote:15 million goddamn that's a steal. What in the world are Man Utd and Real doing lol?
Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
When did the Schalke flop become so good? I'm looking forward to see him, but I kinda feel for him aswell, Barca fans will slate him for not being Xavi or Iniesta after a few months.

Not sure if Real need him right now tbh, also if im a footballer in this moment i'd find it hard to turn down Barca for Man Yoo tbh.

It's amazing how people always mention transfer fees and not the wages. 8m/year is A LOT. Good signing though.

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
Damn, we're getting Cesc and Barca are replacing him with Rakitic? Why didn't we just try sign Rakitic?
Does this mean they won't sign Koke?

Re: Official: Rakitic to Barcelona
Wouldn't you prefer Modric? I like Rakitic more but it seems to me that Modric fits the profile of the kind of footballer we're looking for better.The Franchise wrote:I am fairly confident he can play with Iniesta.
