ANALYSIS: I Cancel, still good option for the Barça?

The FC Barcelona follows looking for a right side that cover the course of Dani Alves, Ernesto Valverde affirmed to his arrival that would like him have Sergi Roberto for the centre of the field and Robert Fernández escudriña the market in search of a good option.

From it does some days the bet that more strength has taken is the one of the Portuguese side of the Benfica, Nélson Semedo, more explaining that Benjamin Mendy, another of the options that stirred the Barcelona technical secretary, seems that it will leave of the Monaco but will put course to the Manchester City. In spite of everything, the club lisboeta has descolgado remitiendose to the clause of the footballer, fixed in 60 million euros, and Robert seems had to close a near agreement to the 50 millions by only one of the pieces that needs the new Barça of Valverde.

In this tessitura, could the FC Barcelona think again in Joao Cancel? The side of Valencia, also Portuguese, has lived a season convulsa, and fruit of his irregularity has gone cooling an interest that had to the Catalans litigating with Chelsea by his incorporation.

Now, the quantity that would demand the group che would be notably lower to the one of does some months, and, of course, holgadamente inferior to which Benfica this asking by Semedo.

The experience of Valverde, key

Joao Cancel would arrive by an affordable quantity and his conditions and his age -23 years-, invite to think in a footballer with a lot of potential and whose style fits in the lateral type of the Barça.

In spite of his problems in Valencia, the player has clear that needs minutes and a big performance if it wants to have some opportunity to go in in the announcement of Portugal for the World-wide of Russia, by what his concentration would have to be maximum.

Besides, it is not the first time that Ernesto Valverde occupies this position with extremes reconverted. In his go through the Atletic, Óscar of Marcos, that began occupying several positions in the front of attack, was a fixed in the right side, a place that also adopted in some occasion Iñigo Lekue.
