Barça know very well that the free agent market is a great help when it comes to strengthening the squad every summer, even more so if the club of the player in question already makes it clear that there will be no last-minute renewal
Sergi Cardona has consolidated in LaLiga like the left side of the UD The Palms. This has allowed him be one of the footballers that the FC Barcelona has added in his diary, especially because it finishes agreement the the next 30 June and could be a good complement for Alejandro Balde, remembering that it is practically a fact that Marcos Alonso will not continue in the City Condal.
Besides, this week the ex player of The Palms and member of his technical office, Deivid Rodríguez, cleared even more the situation of future of the defence, commenting that "he (Cardona) knows what there is, we know, and the president has said it, that does not go to be followed here, as it finish agreement and does not want to follow with us. We respect it", it ensured.
Everything seems very defined for Sergi Cardona
"He wants to keep growing, go to a better club, and I wish him the best. It has fulfilled... It is fulfilling, we go, because it has done an incredible season and has helped us in all this progress to achieve the promotion. It seems me a big uncle, so I wish him the best if it does not continue with us", signalled the director, leaving free road for these clubs that wish to negotiate with the side of face to the next 1 July, a list in which the Barça would be the candidate more 'top', although the Real Betis also has advanced a lot in his interest in the last weeks.
And it is that the Barcelona entity seems an ideal project for a footballer of alone 24 years that wants to keep growing, even if it is to arrive in a secondary role. This because with Balde returning of a long injury the next pre-season, Cardona would have some options to add a lot of minutes at the beginning and try show all his aptitudes to the Barcelona technical body, already was the one of Xavi Hernández or another.
The Barça will finish renewing his defence in summer
The idea of the Barça is that Joao Cancel continue, although it seems clearer that will go back to the right, especially if Koundé or Christensen finish going out in summer. Like this, it would remain opened this role of acting left side, one that in addition to the option of Cardona has the return of the yielded Álex Fence in, Julián Araujo and Sergiño Dest, remembering that this last has an option of purchase of 10 million euros with the PSV.
