Emerson, the side of Betis that Barça does not forget

To day of today, the FC Barcelona has three players to cover the right side, although with a lot of asterisks. On the paper, Nélson Semedo is the headline and the absolute owner of the right-handed lane of the saga in a theorist eleven of gala, since it has stepped forward in the team and his performance has gone improving since it arrived does two pertinent summers of the Benfica.

The sportive planning considered, to principle of season, to Moussa Wagué like the direct competition of the luso for the position, but his performance does not seem to convince to Ernesto Valverde. The Txingurri prefers even go back to reconvert to Sergi Roberto to the side, although the Catalan already has showed in numerous occasions that presents lagoons playing in this position.

Since the competition of Semedo are a young player that is green and another that not even is lateral, the culés do not forget of Emerson, the footballer that purchased does some months paying 12 million euros and, immediately, selling the 50 percent of the rights of the footballer to the Real Betis, team in which the Brazilian plays at present.

Emerson, of 20 years, plays in the Betis from the past month of January and, after some first months of adaptation with sporadic apparitions, this season the Brazilian has consecrated in the eleven headline of Rubi. His performance goes in growth, especially in the offensive plot, in which it contributes a lot to the verdiblancos carrying even two goals in his pigeonhole.

In defence, Emerson still has to fine-tune concepts but, given his age, there is full confidence in that it will mature over time. The deal that the Barça closed with the Betis includes that, in summer of 2021, the club culé will have the power to decide if it repurchases 50% remaining of the pass of the footballer and incorporates it to the first team. For this still remains more than a year and half, time that will have the Brazilian to improve.

The future of the right side

Nélson Semedo, of 25 years, still has a lot of route in the FC Barcelona like right side title. Footballers like Wagué or Emerson have to be those that take a step forward over time to be able to argue him the place to the Portuguese. For the moment, the African is not having prominence and already especula with his possible exit in the market of winter​. While, Emerson follows progressing.
