Barça postpones the 'Gayà operation' for 2023

The FC Barcelona​ is working constantly in the planning for the season 2022/23, and between his works is to reinforce the saga. Xavi Hernández already has communicated to the managerial which are the footballers that adapt better to his diagram of game and sportive project, by what there are several names on the table. One of them was Jose Luís Gayà, the left side of Valencia CF.

The egarense was convinced, after the refusal of Theo Hernández to land in Barcelona, that the one of Pedreguer would be the best option between all the alternatives to compete him the place to Jordi Alba. Besides, never it has descartado the option to dress of blaugrana, taking into account that fichar by the Catalan group would be a big step in his career. Added to this, his good relation with Mateu Alemany facilitated even more the things. The way was done.

The ones of Joan Laporta were had to do an effort for ficharle because they knew that the group 'che' could not be too demanding in his economic pretences. Gayà saldra Free in June of 2023, that is when it expires his agreement, by what himself or yes will have to take out 'cut' by him. However, Valencia has planted a sinfín of obstacles to leave him go out, and are looking for at all costs renew him.

It is thus that, as it affirms the newspaper 'ACE', the Barça would have asked him to the player that do not renew and that expect until the next campaign to be able to ensure his traspaso. The ones of the Mestalla will have to open him the doors of exit if they do not want to see leave to one of his best players without leaving an alone euro in the arks of the institution. Everything remains in his hands, and would be for seeing if it follows the council of Alemany or finishes for signing a new agreement.

The 'plan B'

At present, the player that 'sum more whole' to reinforce the left band is Álex Grimaldo. The excanterano already dressed the colours of the club in the inferior categories, just before splitting in direction to Lisbon with the Benfica Portuguese. To the equal that Gayà, his agreement finalises in 2023, and his six seasons to the maximum level with the 'eagles' do him a candidate more than copy for Xavi.

Already the FC Barcelona tried to incorporate him in the wintry market, but without any type of success. From Portugal did not want to know at all on any type of cession, in addition to that it is titularísimo inside the eleven of Nélson Veríssimo. In spite of this, outlines like a more affordable piece so much economically as in predisposition, since it is in his plans return to the Camp Nou.​
