The mediocentro Catalan finally confirmed his decision of not renewing and continue with his career in a new club, by what the culés have a wide diary and in her finds the Uruguayan Manuel Ugarte of the Sporting of Portugal.
However, 'Sport' has aimed this Wednesday that the mediocampista has all very advanced for fichar by the Aston Villa, club that finally has remained without Mateu Alemany. To weigh that the player was offered to the club blaugrana in his moment, his price has finished being an obstacle in the operation and from the Premier yes that they want to bet more directly by the charrúa.
