Currently, some of the Barça players are keenly awaiting the exits of players to get a chance to play. One of them is Koundé, who can only be registered if Aubameyang leaves for Chelsea or if either Busquets or Piqué agree to reduce their wage before the game on Sunday.
Another player waiting is Miralem Pjanic.
The Bosnian is keenly following Memphis's transfer. Barça are currently required to pay bonuses for every game Pjanic appears in, but once Memphis seals his move to Juventus, Barça would be free of the obligation.
Pjanic is optimistic about playing a key role this season, with Xavi highly rating his understanding of the game. He is a potential replacement for Busquets.
Pjanic is one of the quickest passers in the squad and that is something Xavi wants to see a lot more in his team.
