Pressure on Barcelona: Gabriel Jesus signs for three years
Gabriel Jesús, 29-year-old Brazilian striker, was introduced this afternoon as a new player for FC Barcelona, signing a three-year contract and generating excitement among the fans.
The information comes from an opinion column written by Barraca and Tangana, and was reported by Enric Fontcuberta for the EFE agency.
A revolutionary summer
The summer of 2026 is described as a period with good days, bad days and days that are neither good nor bad, labeled as absolutely revolutionary; the summers of 2025 and 2024 also featured that mix, although they differ from 2026 according to the narrative. It is not compared to autumn, winter or spring, which, according to the author, will also alternate those types of days in the calendar.
A promise not to forget Cape Verde was recalled, although the author admits not remembering the reason and hopes the country will focus on its own retirement; moreover, the summer proved demanding by tackling topics such as the World Cup, fire extinction, the eclipse and geopolitics with Morocco.
The author confessed to having contracted covid in 2026 and now plans to look for other forgotten diseases, such as scarlet fever or scurvy, perhaps linked to Cape Verde. Incredible maneuver: catching covid in 2026 and then having it affect you.
The striker's mantra
With the league underway, teams keep signing players and the most repeated phrase this summer has been “We need to sign a striker”, heard in two identical variants.
A local anecdote recounts that the city’s founders, when assessing the newcomers, heard the phrase “We need to sign a striker”, which the author’s grandfather later repeated as his last words and, according to the immigration office, whispering it speeds up obtaining citizenship; the author concludes by wishing to be that striker, noting that the position is seen as a simple solution to complex problems.
