Konrad de la Fuente is right now the only destabilizing factor that Ronald Koeman has on the roster. Without Ousmane Dembélé and Ansu Fati, injured, the American could have important minutes in the next games
The FC Barcelona is having this very bad season luck with the injuries. In these moments, the culés have to four important players lesionados. Gerard Hammered will be 'KO' until March with almost total security; Ansu Fati also will be of drop until mediated of March of 2021; Sergi Roberto, that could go back to finals of this 2020 or principles of the next year; and Ousmane Dembélé, that still has for a week and average more as minimum.
By all this, Ronald Koeman is having problems so much in the defence as in the forward, where no longer can have the two faster footballers that has in his staff. Without Dembélé and Ansu, only Leo Messi and perhaps Sergiño Dest look for the one against one with assiduity. This is a work for the Barcelona, to which lis slope much more generate advantages without a left extreme that can desequilibrar and look for the space.
By this reason, everything indicates that the trainer barcelonista goes to explain much more of what has done it up to now with Konrad de la Fuente. Until Ousmane was entirely recovered, the extreme of the filial is the only fast player and with dribbling that there is in dynamics of the first team. This is what gives him advantage regarding other names and is what could cause that the míster of Zaandam him of more opportunities.
Up to now, the North American alone has played some minutes against the Dynamo of Kiev and the Ferencvaros in Champions League. In League still has not debuted, but is possible that can do it in the next days. The Catalans can not allow the luxury to puncture in any meeting more and Koeman could throw hand of the canterano for the second parts if the crashes complicate and needs desborde and speed by band.
His big competitor for this duel will be Francisco Trincao, that also has desborde, but is not so electrical neither fast like Konrad. The luso yes is having a lot of opportunities by the right, but has not taken advantage of them and therefore Koeman could opt by the American.
Konrad, a pure extreme of the old school
De la Fuente is a classical extreme, very swift, very incisive and with a lot of ease for the desborde. It is a profile of footballer that every time is more into disuse and by this reason is so interesting. Without Ansu and Dembélé and with the problems that has this Barcelona to find spaces in front of enclosed defences, his presence could be the solution that looks for Ronald Koeman.
