Gerard Hammered, Clément Lenglet, Samuel Umtiti, Thomas Vermaelen, Jean-Clair Todibo and Jeison Murillo are the central with which explains right now Ernesto Valverde in staff. Three head offices of the highest level that would be headlines in practically any team of the world, a very promising youngster and two veterans curtidos in one thousand battles. It is the better place covered of the staff and the arrival of Of Ligt it apuntalaría even more if it fits.

But there was a day in which it happened all the contrary and the position of central defence was the big problem of the group barcelonista. Therefore, during years the Barcelona technical office was tracking the market in search of players that could solve this problem. After a lot look for, arrived Umtiti, Lenglet, Todibo and perhaps in some months, Matthijs of Ligt.

But instead of the ex of the Olympique of Lyon or of the ex sevillista, the footballer that could have been culé is Kalidou Koulibaly. The player of the Naples is one of the big head offices of the Series To Italian and does a time seems that the Barça interested a lot by his services. Or at least this explains his ex representative, that by then still worked for him.

"When I was his agent, the Real Madrid never presented to by Kalidou, unlike the Barcelona. The Catalan group always has followed him, since it also has the capacity to take out the balloon, an important characteristic to play in Barcelona", explained Bruno Satin in Radius Kiss, when they asked after him the teams that arrived to interest by his ex represented.

The true is that Koulibaly could have been a big reinforcement for the Barça, to have confirmed his interest by means of a traspaso. It is a defence corpulento, agile for his height and his weight and imponente in the aerial game. Besides, as it indicates Satin, always tries to take out the balloon played from backwards, although this sometimes can mean lose the possession in a committed place. 

In the list of the Madrid if it left Varane

As they aim several sportive means, the Real Madrid would have in his list to Koulibaly, if at the end Rapha Varane finish leaving. The big problem for the merengues is that the Naples does not want to sell to the footballer by at all of the world. It is one of the central more in shape of the moment, probably is the best defender of the Series To and his exit would not contemplate by less than 120 million euros. It will be necessary to see what happens with Varane to see the following step of Florentino Pérez regarding the Senegalese.
