One of the requests of Xavi Hernández for the season 2022-2023 of the FC Barcelona has been the signing of a right side, in front of the exit of Dani Alves and the questionable level of Sergiño Dest and Òscar Mingueza, in addition to the little physical reliability of Sergi Roberto that finish to happen more than seven months in the enfemería. The Barcelona club expects to fulfil the wish of the trainer egarense and have to César Azpilicueta like main option, but there are more names in the list of possible signings.

Although the incorporation of the right side navarro seems nearer after Chelsea accessed to put him in the market by 13 million euros, still is not ensured further of the verbal agreement that achieved the Barça with the footballer does some months. In this sense, from the Camp Nou study the different alternative in the market of signings and Juan Foyth, player of the Villarreal, has appeared like possible 'plan B' for the right-handed band. Also it has sounded the name of his compatriot Nahuel Molina.

In the case of the footballer of the 'yellow submarine', the journalist Luca Bendoni has stood out that the Barça ''put see him like an alternative so much to play of lateral as of head office, to the equal that Azpilicueta, the one who of agreement to this information keeps on being the first alternative for the Barcelona in this market of signings.

The Villarreal did effective his option of purchase in the summer of 2021, after his cession in the 20-21 pertinent of the Tottenham. Since, it has been an important piece in the approach of Unai Emery, standing out by his firmness in the side, but also by his capacity to appear as central when it was necessary. In the last course contested 33 parties between all the competitions, 33 of them like titling. It annotated a goal and gave an assistance along the campaign.

Foyth, without leadership in Argentina

In the selection, however, has lost his importance after Lionel Scaloni left him out of the announcement for the Glass America and included to Nahuel Molina in his plans. The right side of the Udinense also has been in the radar of the Barça in the last months and is considered like one of the footballers with more projection in his position. It arrived like a stranger, but very soon began to add chevrons in the 'albiceleste', sharing the place with Montiel. In said tournament, played five parties, with 320 minutes of action, but has been the 'afterwards' the most surprising.

The bet of the seleccionador Argentinian in Molina is absolute. It played nine of the 11 parties of the eliminatory sudamericanas for Qatar, complete all. It repeated also against Italy in the 'Finalissima' and is, in definite, a right side that has left performances very important for his club and selection. It is not sopresa that ask 30 million euros by him.
