However, the club have shown great intent in the transfer window this summer and look set to replace the Dutchman in attack. The recent signings of Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha have added further firepower to Barcelona's ranks. But it has also presented the side with a financial problem with regards to player registrations. It was clear that the Blaugrana would need to offload some players in order to register their new signings. Depay has emerged as one possible option, with the club initially seeking a fee in the range of €20 million to sell the player. Depay has reportedly confirmed that he will only leave as a free agent. With Depay's wages off the table, it would certainly offer Barcelona some financial freedom in their pursuit of registering new signings. Barcelona still unable to register Kounde as player FC Barcelona v Pumas UNAM - Joan Gamper Trophy According to Reuters, Barca are still unable to comply with La Liga's Financial Fair Play regulations and register new signing Jules Kounde. The club confirmed the signing of French defender Kounde from Sevilla for a fee in the range of €50 million. The 23-year-old has impressed several suitors with his performances for club and country and was on the radar of many clubs this summer. When asked about Kounde's situation, Xavi said: "At the moment, we don't know anything. We are on stand-by. We are waiting. Kounde is a great leader and a great player. Hopefully he shows it soon - tomorrow, if he can play. He has trained very well, I see him in good spirits, but we need to sell players to be able to register him."
