He gets to reunite with Neymar. Except that team already has quite a few egos (Icardi and Mbappe). That's gonna take a good man manager to placate. Unfortunately, Ancelotti is not available.

Also, Barça is absolutely in the dumps financially, as it has yet to fully register its new signings (Aguero and Depay). All that free spending from a few years ago (Dembele, Coutino, and Griezemann) has come home to roost, as it ought to. It really needs immediate cash infusion, just to run daily operations. This underscores why it wants the Super League to succeed: so that it could borrow against its future and get cash now, nevermind that it will just be punting the problem down a few years and letting it fester into an even larger issue, even were the Super League to be able to launch.

Mes que un club, eh?
