The FC Barcelona keeps the intention of fichar to a pivote. From it does some weeks, comes informing that they want to avoid commit the same error that already had when Sergio Busquets was in the team. It was the only available player to split like mediocentro and supposed a drama every time that it was not available. Now Oriol Romeu is the only option and want to that it go in in rotation, but the possibilities are very limited... At least for now.
Xavi Hernández is conscious that players like Frenkie of Jong or Ílkay Gündogan can split as '5', but prefer that have another role. They do not have the profile of mediocentro that 'prefer', by what the sportive direction has been in the research of a player 'low cost' for the month of January. 'Sportive world' has informed that the options are reduced because they will not have eases with the Fair Play financial. There is not how face the incorporation and registration, in summary.
The priorities of the Barça, very clear-cut
It does not be necessary to overlook that the big priority of the Catalan entity is to achieve the register of Vitor Roque, the one who will land in the City Condal in January after the agreement that achieved with the Athletico Paranaense, during the summer, for his traspaso by 61 million euros: 30 fixed and 31 in variables. It will be an authentic challenge, especially because still there are not news of the pending money of Líbero Certificate Football and has not concretised the renewal of Frenkie of Jong, between other key operations to reduce the mass salarial or generate extraordinary income.
If the Barça already will suffer, more than the account, to inscribe to a player that already has fichado, seems unlikely that go to bet by a new traspaso. 'MD' has explained that, although there are names on the table of the sportive direction, do not pose the possibility and think that would be much more feasible during the window of transfers estival. Only a 'bargain' irrechazable and that had sense deportivamente would change the history. Like a case Aubameyang in 2022, for example.
Oriol Romeu could be the only alternative
Like this then , from the dispatches of the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper have assumed that, probably, will finish with Oriol Romeu as only alternative for the pivote. Xavi Hernández trusts fully in him, although it has showed that in parties 'big' and with a lot of physical requirement probably will not surrender as it expects . Already it happened in the visit to the Port wine, in which it was especially slow and finished like the big signalled in the Barça.
