Koeman continues making decisions: Junior Firpo stays at Barça

Ronald Koeman is changing a lot of things in the FC Barcelona from his arrival. The first that did the Dutch when it was appointed new trainer culé was to call to all the descartes and communicate them that they did not explain in his new project. Arturo Vidal, Luis Suárez, Samuel Umtiti and Ivan Rakitic had to look for team and did not go to be followed. The Croat did not take in doing him case and this past Thursday was presented like new player of the Seville.

In addition to leaving clear with who explains and with who no, since it has begun the pre-season the Dutch is taking very good note of what is seeing. There are footballers that are on a tightrope from does time and that they could leave the club this summer. It is the case for example of Junior Firpo​, to the that many planted out of the Barcelona. The Hispanic-dominican disappointed the past campaign and the blaugrana were listening offers by him.

Nevertheless, as it ensures the newspaper 'Sport', Koeman has blocked the exit of the left-handed side after seeing him this week in the trainings. The Dutch would be satisfied with the seen on the field and would have decided to remain with the ex of the Betis. Therefore, the one of Zaandam does not see necessary to reinforce the left lane, since it also trusts Jordi Alba, to the that sees recovering his best version after his irregular last course.

Only in the hypothetical case that the Barcelona receive an offer irrechazable by Junior would contemplate his sale in these moments. The Catalans paid 18 million fixed euros and 12 in variables by him and consider that it will be complicated that somebody arrive with an upper proposal to that. The barcelonistas do not want to lose money with this investment, by what with the seen well of his trainer ensure that Firpo have another opportunity to show that has level to triumph in the Camp Nou.

Koeman Thinks that is a young side, with projection and that it can give a lot if it gives him confidence. The technician wishes to check in pre-season if his good feelings confirm , and only if Junior is a complete disaster replantearía his case and the bet by fichar another carrilero. But for now, in the club do not see a lot of options in the market and want to spend the money that there is in other more notable positions.

If Junior remains , Lautaro moves away more

If the decision of the ex seleccionador of Holland confirms , the Barça will have even more complicated can close the signing of Lautaro Martínez. The offer of the culés by him was of some 70 million euros more Firpo, by what without him in the equation, the Catalans would have to pay much more money in cash, something that do not have. The Argentinian moves away increasingly and everything indicates that in the Camp Nou will have to look for a more affordable alternative.
