Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona has, from the past season, the need imperiosa of fichar a central of future. Gerard Piqué, Samuel Umtiti and Clément Lenglet are the only footballers with which explains in the first staff but, of course, it is necessary to have clear that the Catalan already has 33 years and that the frank-Cameroonian follows without finding his best version of game, that that did him triumph before they began the physical problems in his knee.

The past campaign, the Barça tried to tackle the signing of Matthijs of Ligt, but east decided to leave to the Juventus of Turín. After this failure, the sportive direction had clear that the arrival of a defence can not expect neither a year more, but the operation is now loomed. The crisis by the coronavirus limits a lot the capacity of the club for fichar and, besides, there are other priorities on the table as they are Neymar and Lautaro Martínez.

Of course, there will be money to close the arrivals of the Argentinian and of the Brazilian together with the one of the central, by what will be indispensable to look for alternatives. On the paper, there are two names that appear like possible reinforcements 'free' for being already property of the club: the first is Jean-Clair Todibo, yielded to the Schalke 04; the second, Ronald Araújo, usual of the filial.

According to the informations desveladas by the newspaper 'Ace', the FC Barcelona already has decided that the Uruguayan goes to be the fourth head office. Araujo Is a portento physical and, in spite of that it is officially footballer of the FC Barcelona 'B', already is accustomed to make the trainings with the first team. It treats of a conclusive head office, solid and of big envergadura, attributes that could improve a lot if had more minutes in the first team.

In fact, even it had been summoned with Uruguay before the stop by coronavirus by his good work in the last months. Ernesto Valverde, the one who gave him the opportunity, did not take too much in transmitting to the club that so much by profile futbolístico as by attitude, was above Todibo. Although this thought follows keeping, only there is a point of discord: the fact that the Uruguayan was non-EU.

Todibo, like coin of change

Todibo Is a player that awake illusion in the fans and more after his good performance in the Schalke, but seems that to internal level does not think like this inside the club. Setién Did not have the opportunity to have him and could value the possibility to have him to proof, but to day of today seems more likely that the French go in in some operation and that it was Araújo the one who remain .
