Joan Laporta says Barcelona will be able to sign players normally in January

Barcelona president Joan Laporta is confident the Catalans will be able to sign players normally when the January transfer window rolls around.

The club struggled to bring in players this summer, notably top target Nico Williams, due to their continued financial issues.

However, Laporta says thinks will be different in January as the club will be back to the 1:1 rule.

“Yes [we will be able to sign players normally in January], because we plan to arrive at LaLiga’s 1:1 rule before then,” he told a press conference.

“When you say sign, we can sign players, the problem is the registration with the league.
