The FC Barcelona has giving a 'hit' on the table and during a stretch of hours 'frantic' announced the renewal of Ousmane Dembélé with the entity culé until 2024 and the signing of Raphinha, the one who will be linked to the square directed by Xavi Hernández until 2027. The French had 'foot and half' out of the Camp Nou, but a 'volantazo' of last in his situation finished with the footballer accepting the requirements of the club with the end to follow under the orders of the egarense.

By his part, the Brazilian had several offers of the biggest clubs of England, those who saw him like an opportunity inmejorable for apuntalar his forwards. However, the dream of the player always was to dress the Barcelona T-shirt, and therefore 'descartó' the proposal of Chelsea to be able to put course to the City Condal. The culés 'bid' with strength in front of a Leeds that showed inflexible in his pretences although it finished accepting the 68 'kilos' offered by the Barça, which will be divided in 58 fixed and 10 in variables.

Now, the trainer of Terrassa will have two options of guarantees for the right extreme of his offensive. Although both players can manage of good way by the left lane, the presence of Ansu Fati closes them the door to the two, by what these will have to 'contest' the titularity in the right-handed flank, giving him a big 'headache' to Xavi.

Distinct alternative

In addition to the presence of the 'Mosquito' and the one of Carry Cheerful, Hernández could opt by the option of Ferran Torres to attack by the right side. In spite of fulfilling like left extreme and leading centre in distinct moments of his career, his natural position and in where more comfortable feels the one of Foios is in the right-handed side of the terrain of game. In said demarcation knew to stand out when it belonged to the rows of Valencia and the Manchester City, by what could present his candidature during the next season.

However, during the past campaign the footballer split in almost all the parties that contested like extreme by the left, position in which Xavi keeps him in his planning for the following course. The legendary mediocentro Barcelona expects to have distinct names of weight in attack for the next season, where Aubameyang, Ansu, Ferran, Raphinha, Dembélé, Memphis and, possibly, Lewandowski will have to win a place in the eleven of the egarense. A 'puzzle' that gives taste resolve.
