The Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy says in its third meaning that 'trim' is “decreasing or making something material or immaterial smaller.” AND That is what the Board has achieved With the four sections, which will continue to expect a 21st century installation. Yes, Josep Cubells put the first stone … but she still alone.
For the second time in three seasons, Barça closes the course of the Palau without Europe The four teams are losing potential in the track and quantity of support in the stands (The assistance still does not recover the figures prior to COVID with the sole exception of basketball despite the vague attempts of the club).
The worst thing is that they do not see glimpse that the club re -bets strongly (and with money) for everything that is not football. The only salvation table is that things really work with the Tour of the first football team to Camp Nou and that this leads the economic recovery of the entity. And that you want to bet on the Palau.
Lesions and disappointments in basketball
It is one of the sections that have most noticed the cuts and dire decisionssuch as those to continue paying the salaries of Nikola Mirotic and Cory Higgins after terminating the contract. The march for economic issues of Rolands Sms in 2022 and coach Sarunas Jasikevicius in 2023 (they made an offer of laughter) are two details.
Barça probe the signing of Pedro Martínez and He ended up trusting Joan Peñarroya, a technician who the club has left without support Not strengthening the team despite having a ko quintet. The Catalans worked even after the serious injury of Nico Laprovittola in October, but the two months that Chimezie Metu was left were the tip.

Then Juan Núñez and Jan Vesel would fall (plus the 'frightening' of Dame Sar), while everything the club did were The Sainete of Raulzinho Neto and The Burda Farsa with Thomas Heurtel. The fact is that Barça closes the course with a Catalan Lliga (98-81 to Baxi Manresa) with the referents Willy Hernangómez and Satoransky very lazy.
Then the Copa del Rey in rooms against Laguna Tenerife (91-86) with 22 points from Marcelinho Huertas On the edge of the 42 years and the Final Four faded in Monaco with a bad attack in the fifth game (85-84). In the Endesa League, the Blaugranas lost in the semifinals against Unicaja after squandering a +9 in the last two minutes.
The sports director Juan Carlos Navarro confirmed after the league ko that Joan Peñarroya will fulfill the year of the contract he has left. Justin Anderson and Jabari Parker leave, while Myles Cale has already been announced And Will Clyburn would be very close. If you do not really bet on basketball, nothing especially positive is predicted.
The handball, without icing
It is the jewel of the crown even though the 'cuts' will take Gonzalo Pérez de Vargas (Al Kiel) and in 2026 Emil Nielsen. The Plus is that the managers of the section and the club are handball people: coach Carlos Ortega, coordinator Joan Marin, the director of Professional Sports Xavi O'Callaghan, the advisor of President Enric Masip and even Valero Rivera (Member of Honor of the Section).
Despite the defeats in the Palau against the Granollers (30-31) and in Valladolid (26-24), Barça raised the Asobal League authoritarian with 12 points more than the vallensthe Copa del Rey (35-24 to Abanca Ademar), the Iberian Super Cup (33-38 to Sporting), the Spanish Cup (37-34 Al Bathco Torrelavega) and the Catalunya Super Cup (52-27 to the Granollers).
Barça does not lose an Asobal League since 2010 / Javi Ferrándiz
The icing was the Champions League, a title that Barça had achieved in two of Carlos Ortega's three campaigns on the bench. However, The same thing happened in 2023: Magdeburg crossed in 'Semis' by Bennet Wiegert. If two years ago they were the penalties, this time the referees had a lot to do with Las Rojas to Ariño, Petrus and Carlsbogard.
Now a new stage opens with a revolution that will cause the March of the emblematic Aitor Ariño, Pérez de Vargas y Thiagus Petrustogether with Pol Valera, Hampus Wanne, Melvyn Richardson, Juan Palomino, Javi Rodríguez, the almost unpublished Jaime Gallego and a Vincent Gérard who will return to his retirement after helping the team for the last three months.
Unless the list grows, The expected return of 'Ludo' Fàbregas It will be the great claim For a course that will see the return of three youth players: Ian Barrufet (Melsungen), Dani Fernández (Stuttgart) and Djordje Cikusa (assigned in Montpellier). In addition, Óscar Grau will rise from the subsidiary and the Egyptian Seif Elderaa and the Icelandic goal Viktor Hallgrimsson will also arrive.
Sala football, a want and I can't
The injuries have marked the reality of a disappointing course and it is time for someone to analyze With seriousness what happened to put solutions. It is true that the World Cup ended in October and that Barça had more than half a template there, but other teams also have not had so many casualties and so recurring.
That said, Tino Pérez has only known how to find the point of the team in the qualifiers for the title and the truth is that he has been close to achieving it, something that nobody expected after the defeat in the Palau in the first quarter of rooms against Jaén Paraíso Interior (2-3). The summary is a blank season and again outside Europe.

Given the impossibility of convincing Jesús Velasco to continue instead of taking charge of the selection, Jordi Torras brought Tino Pérez from Chinese Sala And the Toledo also managed to form a solid block in record time. However, that was by November and that solvency did not recover again.
Barça fell in the quarterfinals in the Copa del Rey in Jaén with a goal in the extension of Mati Rosa (3-2) and suffered a hard KO in semifinals of the Spanish Cup against Peñíscola (8-2). The League escaped in the fourth game of the final against Jimbee Cartagena after fitting two goals in the last 46 seconds (2-3) and was not won by the Catalunya Cup.
Next season (in principle with Tino Pérez) will be marked by Al Goodbye of two emblems like Sergio Lozano and Dyego more the possible march of Adolfo to Benfica. Neguinho arrives after his assignment in Palma to lead the new Barça to which the Argentine Luciano Gauna (Peñíscola) and the Canterano Pol Pacheco (Valdepeñas) will also arrive.
The late hockey reaction
If one sees Barça's performance in the qualifiers for the title of the OK League, few would understand the changes that will be made (in the absence of official confirmation) in the section most punished by the damn 'cuts'. If you don't interest hockey rolled, someone comes out to the fore and say it clearly.
Without the emblematic Pau Bargalló and Joao Rodrigues (in 2023 he left Helder Nunes), a flying turn Gaby Cairo finally took David Cáceres to the bench in replacement of Edu Castro. The novelties were Ferran Font (it came from winning the Champions with Sporting) and Pablo Álvarez's return (he went to Benfica in 2021 With Lucas Ordonez) and Sergi Aragonese (from Reus Deportiu).
The OK League made a very hard course for Barça / FCB
A series of injuries and the inexplicable results in the Champions League were undermining the confidence of a team that, in parallel, established a new record with 18 victories in the first 18 league days. Maybe there was the big mistake. With a team not so powerful, Europe should have been prioritized to historical records.
The elimination in the Champions League in a group of six in which four passed and the Noia Freixenet and Reus Deportiu were classified left the project very touched. The loss in the quarterfinals in the Copa del Rey against Noia (2-0) was the lace. Neither the brilliant conquest of the OK League with full victories in the play-offs nor the Super Cup will save the Mr..
Everything points to what David Cáceres will leave the bench and replace Bilbao Ricardo Areswho leaves FC Porto after four courses in which he won a Champions League. It sounds like assistant Moisés Escudero (Rivas) and could return Marc Torra after his withdrawal to reinforce the coaching staff. As for the novelties, Matías Pascual will not continue.
