Calendar of FC Barcelona

The Barcelona will live a month of January very moved in matter of signings. For this, first the blaugrana will look for to lighten the mass salarial with the exit of players like Ousmane Dembélé and Samuel Umtiti, if they arrive offers, and like this will be able to go out to the market to look for to the reinforcements that did not achieve during the previous window.

The club has not denied his interest by players like Memphis Depay, of the Olympique Lyon, Eric García, of the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola or Georginho Wiljnaldum, one of the fundamental pieces of the Liverpool. However, although the three finish his agreements with his respective clubs in the summer of 2021, the Barça will have to ensure of who is the most urgent so that it arrive in January. From 'FCBN' want to know who think that is more prioritario, and therefore we ask it to you in the following survey:

THE POLL Which is the most urgent signing for the Barça in January of 2021?

Depay, García and Wiljnaldum will be free agents the next season and from January will be able to negotiate his free exit for the month of June. However, if the Barça wants to that any of them recale in the Camp Nou in the winter, will have to do an investment, that will be much less of what asked the teams during the market estival.

In the case of Lautaro Martínez, that has agreement until the 2023, the situation is much more complicated. The Argentinian could initiate conversations to renew his agreement with the Inter, only if the club accepts his conditions. The forward looks for to equalise the wages of his mates Romelu Lukaku or Christian Eriksen, that earn more than seven million euros. The only problem is that the nerazzurri think to offer him a basic wage of 5 'kilos' annual, by what that would be the reason so that the negotiations break and leave him the free way to the Barça.

Lautaro is the most difficult signing, but one of the most wished no of face to the winter, but especially in summer. With the exit of Luis Suárez, thought that the Argentinian went to be his substitute, but the negotiations between the Barça and Inter detained of a moment to another by his high price of 90 million euros, a quantity that the culés can not allow in these moments.

However, Lautaro is a player that would bring a lot of advantages to short and long term to the Camp Nou by his versatility in the field and short age (23 years). It can play as leading centre, extreme or false nine. Besides, it is extremely swift, expert in the aerial game and characterises for identifying moments indicated to initiate a contragolpe, a skill that would fit of wonder with the approach of Ronald Koeman.

Depay, the elected to reinforce the forward in January?

Unlike Lautaro, the Barça has more possibilities to achieve the index card of Memphis Depay by a very low cost or even free, since it culminates his agreement with the Lyon in June. The player has admitted that it would like him play again under the orders of Koeman, this time like blaugana. To the equal that his compatriot Wiljnaldum, is request expresses of the Dutch trainer.

Depay Is an ideal player for the Barça. In Holland see it like the substitute of Arjen Robben and has marvelled in France by strength and tarpaulin in the contragolpes, in addition to being a machine of goals, something that does not go through unobserved in the offices of the Camp Nou. To the equal that in the market of signings of summer, his incorporation will depend on the exits of players of the club.

If the Barça achieves the traspaso of the Dutch, already would be two the compatriots of Koeman in the staff, but the technician wants to another more. Georginio Wijnaldum Is another of the players that have in looks it in the City Condal. Although the club considers that it is not necessary fichar to a midfield player, the Dutch of the Liverpool has a lot of characteristics that have called the attention of Koeman.

The player 'network' has agreement until June of 2021, but his team will insist so that it renew. Wijnaldum Has been one of the pillars of the Liverpool of Jürgen Klopp. It is of these players that do not shine in a position in specific, but stand out by all what contribute in the terrain of game, with and without balloon.

The Dutch is versatile and has played in diverse positions in thefield , from mediapunta, until side, but under the orders of Klopp has stood out like left interior. His energy and capacity to visit an and again the field without showing signs of tiredness have carried it to turn into one of the managers of the success of the Liverpool in the last years, by what will not leave it go out easily.

Although the market of signings does not pose like a simple stage for the Barça, there is a player that has showed to be had to go back to the club of his life: Eric García. The central Catalan outlines like the substitute of Gerard Hammered, the one who already has 33 years. García, that left in the 2017 to the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola, already warned to his current club that wants to return to the Camp Nou.

The one of Martorell grew in Can Barça and knows the style of game blaugrana. It is a central very resembled Hammered: thin and no very high that, as it can not trust of his physicist for lidiar with the rivals, does use of his intelligence. Eric is expert in anticipating the danger and his capacity of exit with the balloon is dazzling. The English team does not want to leave it go, but the defender wants to go back home.

There is not space for all

So much Lautaro, like Depay, Wijnaldum and Eric García are players that would contribute a lot to the Barça to short and long term, but the club is not in the economic capacity to do with his index cards, in case that they do not arrive free the last three, and afterwards pay his wages. In any one of the cases, the Barça has much more covered the centre of the field and leading that the defensive saga.

With the possible exit of Umtiti, with which does not explain Koeman, the blaugrana will remain with alone three head offices: Gerard Hammered, Clément Lenglet and Ronald Araújo. In this sense, the arrival of Eric García could be a relief for the Barcelona defence. Besides, it grew with the values culés and has wood of leader, by what his adaptation to the club will be immediate.
