Calendar of FC Barcelona

It does already several months since it published the presumptive interest of the FC Barcelona in Matthijs of Ligt, a defender of the Ajax with very good qualities and that to his 18 years of age already is international by Holland, with the Barça handling very good reports of his progression. The problem is that the Barcelona observers are not the only that visit the Eredivisie, and the Dutch already has called the attention of other European clubs.

Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City would be the clubs that greater interest would have showed up to now in the Premier League, as 'MD', whereas in Germany Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund also would be following very closely the performances of Of Ligt.

Of the quarry of the Ajax there are several players that interest in CanBarça , and is that in his constant trips also has recopilado information on Justin Kluivert, son of the known ex Barcelona forward, and Kasper Dolberg, one of the tips more codiciados of the international panorama, in addition to other young players as Of Jong.

But, going back to Of Ligt, this past summer the central youngster was advised by Barry Hulshoff, his agent, and decided from the first moment be still in the Ajax -with which has agreement until June of 2021- and play in the Amsterdam Sand until final of season.

The Barça has to advance if it wants to Of Ligt

This next summer, however, will be complicated that they can retain him, given the exponential growth that is showing and the will of several big clubs of Europe in ficharle. The Tottenham already paid by the Colombian Davinson Sánchez 40 millions, but does not be necessary to forget that the Liverpool spent this winter in Virgil Go Dijk some 84,5 million euros, whereas the Manchester City paid by Aymeric Laporte 65 millions.

If the FC Barcelona wants to fichar to Of Ligt, therefore, is likely that do not go out him at all cheap taking into account the competition that will have, and the a lot of that has put up the price of in the last times the market of signings in Europe.

The Catalans would do well to learn of the case of Ousmane Dembélé, by the one who bid does a year and half and finish going to the Bundesliga, to go back some afterwards turn# into months a signing multimillionaire. One of the most expensive of the history.
