Rubén Neves was one of the included players in the orbit of the FC Barcelona in the last weeks. His good present with the Wolverhampton did that the managerial asked after he, but the negotiations fell through because of the high economic pretences of the 'Wolves'. And it is that the group directed by Bruno Lage is not had to leave to leave to the midfield player by less than 50 million euros, a figure that to Joan Laporta has seemed him too high.
The Portuguese has agreement until June of 2024 and is valued in 40 'kilos' in the web Transfermarkt. With 25 recently fulfilled years, Neves has contested 30 parties in the 2021-22, adding 4 goals and 2 assistances. The luso is a '5' born, his usual position is in the medullary, engaged with the mark, recovery and exit of his teams. However, the economic actuality of the Barça does not allow him do offers so high and, thus, the club aims to other options that can arrive with letter of freedom.
This is the case of Franck Kessié, one of the reinforcements that the directive has more near to concretise. The marfileño culminates agreement with the Milan and is decidio to leave of Italy course to Catalonia, by which his signing could close in the next days. Although the staff has Frenkie of Jong and Nico González in the medullary, any of the two feels comfortable playing in the place of Sergio Busquets. By the contrary, both players preferen play loose to the sides, with freedom to project in attack.
And it is that the mark in the centre of the field has been one of the fragile points of the Barcelona. When the group blaugrana loses the balloon, the rivals find spaces and eases to arrive to the area in front of the fault of players of put leg and attain to recover fast the ball. In his moment, players like Arturo Vidal and Iván Rakitic have made this function, a role with which neither Frenkie neither Nico feel too comfortable. Rubén Neves would have fit in this profile, but will not be possible because of his cost.
Busquets needs to rest
Sergio is indisputable headline in the FC Barcelona from does more than a decade. After the course of Yaya Touré in 2010, the midfield player has not had rest and, next to fulfil 34 years, 'Busi' already begins to feel the wear. The one of Sabdell aims to arrive in optimum conditions to the World-wide of Catar, since it also is fixed in the eleven of Luis Enrique, by which expects to have the necessary help of face to the 2021-2022 for dosificar efforts.
Xavi Hernández is conscious of this and from here his insistence in fichar a player of the characteristics, for example, of Seydou keita, the one who knew to dress the T-shirt blaugrana between 2008 and 2012 in 173 parties in where it alternated titularities and suplencias always to a good level. Kessié Adjusts to this profile and the Barça expects to close his traspaso until 2028.
