The Catalan press -in concrete "MD"- informed that the young star of the Bayern Munich sounded during the some days like possible signing of the FC Barcelona of face to the next season 2016-17, David Praises, was tired to act almost always like able polyvalent defender to play in the two sides and the axis of the defence, and wished that, in case of fichar by the FC Barcelona, could play like midfield player.

The Barça tanteó seriously his signing weeks backwards and would have telephoned him, but the condition to play like midfield player threw for backwards definitively to the club blaugrana, that had the will to do him act in the position of head office or, as a lot, of left side to put competition to Jordi Alba very accommodated.

Finally, the Bavarian entity that directs Karl Heinz-Rummenigge achieved to prolong the links of David Praises with the group muniqués until 2021, after the culés threw backwards in the signing. Marcell Koller, the seleccionador of Austria, carries months planting to Praises in the centre of the field with full freedom of movements, in a position that loves to the footballer and quer also would be giving good fruits in the game of the combined Austrian.

It praises it could finish earning 11 million net euros by season with the Bayern of Ancelotti. In case of have not renewed, however, the FC Barcelona would have been the only club in which it was had to play, of the propositions that arrived him during the last months. It did not call him the attention leave to play with the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola, and neither had them all achieve regarding the Real Madrid.

The fact to be able to share changing room with stars to which admires like Leo Messi, Neymar and Andrés Iniesta was a big inducement for fichar by the FC Barcelona. In any case, the Bavarian club promised him to Carlo Ancelotti that would keep in the staff germana to the big majority of the stars that compose it, and that is an obstacle that the Barça little could do for saving.

If it Praises it had landed in the Camp Nou, another "problem" would have been to look for him place in the eleven headline. Busquets, Iniesta and Rakitic seem immovable for the time being in the centre of the field -with Burn Turan, Sergi Roberto, Rafinha and próximamente Denis Suárez in the bench-, whereas Jordi Alba also is indisputable in the left band of the defence.

The only position in which it could have shined is in the one of head office beside Gerard Hammered. But David Praises already had left clear that it wants to play of interior... And this caused that it remained finally in the Allianz Sand. It will be necessary to follow looking for, although for the moment the preferred are Marquinhos and Aymeric Laporte in the diary of signings.
