The one who for the moment does not have at all clear his permanence in the Barça is Marlon Santos, that has happened to be a fixed value for the technicians to remain without place in hardly some weeks. The presence of Vitinho and Bump Lozano has separated him of the possibility to remain in the filial, since the two attackers occupy the two squares reserved for non-EU.

Besides, Ernesto Valverde sees him too green to form part of the staff of the 'greater', something that has remained checked in the last announcements of the Barcelona technician. Like this, the option with more strength for the Brazilian is the one to leave yielded, but first will have to expect to that close all the movements in the market to know which will be his next destination.
