If there is a footballer that goes to have it complicated the campaign that comes in the FC Barcelona now that it has confirmed the continuity of Ronald Koeman is Riqui Puig. The mediocampista is not of the taste of the Dutch, that grieve had he the past campaign and that does not seem had to change the plans for this course that comes. Thus, some think that the ideal for the footballer would be to go out yielded, although in 'Catalonia Ràdio' ensure that he resists to this.
In the Catalan radio also affirm that from the own club neither have in mind that the canterano leave this summer. Joan Laporta is enamoured of his game and thinks that will be very important in the future, by what bets by him. Nevertheless, the reality is that the Dutch trainer is not lover of his football and this subtracts him options of face to the next season.
By this reason, in the Barça no descartan of the all that the international Sub-21 Spanish can go out in case to arrive an interesting offer of cession. It is not the priority, but would contemplate if it is the footballer the one who asks it. Right now, he does not think in going out and what wishes is to convince to his technician, but is not had to happen all the year in the bench, as him sucedió the past course. It accepts to be acting, but wants to form part of the usual rotation and be relatively important. If it does not fulfil this, can that the '12' change of opinion and reconsider his posture.
It is necessary to remember that Riqui began the past season with more doubts that never by the presence of Koeman in the bench of the Barcelona. The canterano did not go in inside the plans of the Dutch, that wanted that it went yielded and left him clear that did not go to have a lot of minutes. In spite of everything, the midfield player preferred to remain and struggle by a place, something that has finished him costing be one of the footballers with fewer minutes of the staff.
Riqui Has played very little with Koeman
This past course, the one of Matadepera so alone has played 24 parties and 581 minutes between all the competitions. In the first months of the course was at least explained for his trainer and hardly contested 4 minutes in League in the first 17 meetings. It did not go until the beginning of this 2021 when, taking advantage of a plague of injuries, the young footballer began to do gap in the rotation.
However, in spite of his work and of his good performance in the 12 parties that played in total between January and February, Koeman went back to leave him separated at first. The one of Zaandam has trusted much more in Ilaix Moriba, that advanced him in the rotation of the centre of the field. Riqui Contested only 16 minutes between March and April, with 3 min. against Osasuna, 5 against the Huesca, other 5 in front of the Real Sociedad and 3 in front of the Valladolid.
