Rosell said: “Before August 31 I can say that there will be a further addition to the team.
“But, it is not always that you can sign the players you intend to, because clubs do not want to sell.”
He said that the club would provide all the help that they could to ensure ex-coach Tito Vilanova’s safe recovery.
He added: “It was a very tough season and a little said for having to end our time with Tito. It was a privilege to have had a Coach like him. Everyone at Barca is united with him and wish him the best in recovering.
On their new coach Tata Martino, he said: “Tata is little known in Europe, but we will get to know him. He meets the human and technical profile at the club.
“Everyone who has met him and is working with him is happy. He is a very good Coach, he likes our model and can bring new ideas to improve it.”
Rosell seemed happy with Lionel Messi and Neymar getting along well in training and hoped that would translate onto the field as well.
He said: “As people they get along and I suppose in the field they will too. We have a supermotivated Messi. The doctors say that he is in the best condition that he has ever been in.”
Rosell concluded by reflecting on the club’s improving financial situation. He said: “Following the recovery, we have returned to profit. We continue to reduce debt. We arrived here with it at €500m and the goal is to reduce it by €300m to leave it at €200m by the end of our mandate [June 2016].”
