Many will remember as it does several seasons the technical office of the FC Barcelona tried the signing of a footballer that finish happening to turn into a footballer of first level. However now, braked by numerous muscular injuries, seems that it costs him a lot explain for Pep Guardiola. Although to his level does not have competitor for the centre of the saga.

This saw it does years Johan Cruyff that advised his signing when it still defended the T-shirt of the Anderlecht. It did it after seeing a party of the selection sub 21 of Belgium but the negotiations did not fluctuate well. Kompany Would finish in the Hamburg in 2006 previous payment of ten "kilos". From there it was the City the one who threw him the eye and finish it to him carrying.

Between so many, were varied the opportunities that the Barcelona picture had to do with his services. First it was Txiki Begiristain the one who tried it, afterwards would be Andoni Zubizarreta in 2012 the one who would have it to shot but would finish renewing with the "citizen". The own player recognised for "MD" two years ago the possibility of his signing.

"I have been a pair of times near of fichar by the Barça, there were contacts, but in these last times, officially, can ensure him that it has not existed at all that I know. Have agreement in force with the Manchester City, am very to taste, have won the Premier League, have a serious and alluring project. It does not go in in my plans leave the team", said in his day. 

That was, apparent mind, the full stop of a history of love that could have been but that never was. Unless the destination go back to joint, of definite form, his ways. For now it does it this next Tuesday, in a Manchester City-FC Barcelona where play a lot of things.
