It is one of the players that does not explain for Ernesto Valverde and that will not follow of any of the ways in the FC Barcelona -although he want to it-. Douglas began the past Wednesday the pre-season with the rest of his mates after finish his links with the Sporting, but the Barcelona club follows him looking for exit.
And this Tuesday have known that the Alavés would be looking for a right side to reinforce his defence, being the Brazilian an interesting option as it aims "ETB". The relation between the Barcelona club and the Basque is more than good. Proof of this is that antaño Ortolà was in the rows vitorianas.
Douglas would occupy in Mendizorroza the place that has left free Kiko Femenía. It would be a destination idílico for the Brazilian, that wants to contest another campaign in the Spanish league for like this leave to occupy square of foreigner and can have more options of market in a future -to European level-.
It will travel to United States
Douglas will be this Wednesday in the expedition that will put course to United States. The Brazilian has been summoned, beside Vermaelen, Munir and Samper with the aim to be able to take out something of money in the market by them the next weeks. A decision no exenta of controversy, because it has left went to Sergi Palencia.
It does not expect that the Barcelona club can obtain a big profit with a traspaso or cession again -option that wants to avoid by all the means-, but yes at least give you off of a player that does not have level Barça.
