Barcelona will sell not buy in January - report

Barcelona are reportedly not planning on making any signings in the January transfer window but could look to offload players.

The Catalan giants need to balance the books after another summer of spending and so won’t move for Neymar, despite all the rumors to the contrary, according to Marca.

Instead the club could look to trim the wage bill and the squad in the winter, and there are a number of players who could be considered surplus to requirements.

Ivan Rakitic, Samuel Umtiti and Arturo Vidal were all linked with moves away in the summer window and may be available if acceptable offers arrive.
