They plant to Leo Santos in the diary of signings of the Barça!

A central youngster Brazilian of 19 years, Leo Santos, has been planted in the diary of signings of the FC Barcelona, after the work of 'scouting' of the employee of the club in Brazil, André Cury, that would have analysed his progression during the last months before putting to the Barça in alert on the capacity of progression of the defender of the Corinthians.

Leo Santos is growing to steps enlarged in the Brasileirao, and this would have planted him in the radar so much of the FC Barcelona as of other big clubs of Europe, like the Real Madrid, as it ensures 'MD'. The FC Barcelona wants to cover the backs to half term with the arrival of a new central of future, since it results little likely that Vermaelen continue the next campaign in the staff.

To Gerard Hammered neither remain him too many years of football to the maximum level in the saga barcelonista, and from here that the FC Barcelona was planning a future with Samuel Umtiti, Clément Lenglet and the arrival of a new central with capacity of progression, as it would be the case of Leo Santos or of Matthijs Of Ligt, the Dutch defender of the Ajax.

Leo Santos has the same age that the Dutch, although the hándicap of not having experience in Europe neither neither in his absolute selection, at least for now. In spite of everything, would be underlined in the diary of the Barça like a central with qualities that could come him very well to the team. It treats of a right-handed defender, something important taking into account that Lenglet, Vermaelen and Samuel Umtiti are left-handed.

Leo Santos, a central that could come him well to the Barça

It is corpulento, measures 1,86 and occasionally has acted also like mediocentro, in a polivalencia that likes to the FC Barcelona. Has agreement with the Corinthians until the 2020, but this season already is absolute headline in the saga of the Corinthians, with which adds 18 official parties, two of them in the Glass Libertadores. The Barça could arrive to a draft agreement with him and leave him in the Corinthians until it finish agreement.

Of this form, could follow fogueándose and recalar in the FC Barcelona something more curtido. On the other hand, the group culé could use also the formula that cost him with Yerry Mina, in the case that there was some very interested team in doing with his services.

Tie him to low cost for afterwards sell him to an upper price, obtaining profit. The first option, in any case, would be to remain it in staff as long as it fulfil with the expectations. And, for this, still does lacking to follow observing his progression.
