Joan Laporta outlines Barcelona "dream" and next transfer priority in Xavi revolution

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has outlined his next transfer priority after agreeing a deal to sign Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.

Despite their recent financial struggles, Barca have spent big this summer and have landed Polish goalscoring ace Lewandowski in a deal that could cost up to €50million (£42.6m). They have also splashed out to sign winger Raphinha from Leeds United in a transfer worth €65m (£55.4m) including add-ons.

On top of that, Xavi’s side have also signed centre-back Andreas Christensen and central midfielder Franck Kessie on free transfers following their exits from Chelsea and AC Milan respectively, as well as midfielder Pablo Torre from Racing Santander for €5m (£4.3m).
