President of Barcelona Josep Maria Bartomeu sure that the Catalan club had a successful work in the summer transfer market.

Last summer, Barcelona lost one of its main stars Neimar, who moved to Paris Saint-Germain for 222 million euros.

Nevertheless, the president "blaugranas" Jose Maria Bartomeu believes that this will only benefit the club and tries to convince the rest of it.

"People believe that the departure of Neimar weakened our staff, but all the opposite. Now our composition is better than it was last season, "- convinced Bartomeu.

"The team became stronger on the right flank and in midfield. We can play on counterattacks, and Paulinho added power to the midfield. In the attack we have players such as Deulofeu and Dembele ".

With the sale of Neimar, the famous attacking trio Messi-Suarez-Neimar broke up, but Bartomeu also sees his advantages.

"For us it is an opportunity to get rid of dependence on this trinity. They brought the team a favor, but it had its own price.

Now we have the opportunity to return to collective football in midfield, which has traditionally always been the strong point of Barcelona ".

"His departure allows us to strengthen the model, so as not to hang all the time from this trinity. This is a new opportunity with a new manager, a new project. You can not be pessimistic. Let's not be pessimistic anymore! ", - urged the president of Barcelona.

In addition, Bartomeu claims that Lionel Messi extended the contract with Barcelona.
