The FC Barcelona needs with urgency a left side and this summer fichará to one with total security. The culés need to look for him a replacement to Jordi Alba, that from does a pair of seasons does not have to an acting of guarantees. The Catalan did a temporadón the past course, but arrived to the last two months of campaign very tired. The international Spanish noticed the load of parties and failed in important appointments like the turn of semifinals of Champions or the final of Glass of Rey.
Precisely by all this, Ernesto Valverde has demanded the signing of a carrilero left-handed. The 'Txingurri' does not have Juan Miranda from the past course and thinks that is not prepared to play in the first team still. The trainer barcelonista want to to the acting of Alba already and wait that the club can satisfy his interests with a footballer of level.
Junior Firpo, left side of the Real Betis, is the player that more has sounded these last days. The international sub 21 is of the taste of the Barça and of the own Valverde, but as it aims the newspaper Sport has arisen an economic problem. The differences between what offers the Barcelona and what asks the Betis are too big and this could cause that the Barcelona forget of Firpo.
The béticos do not want to leave that one of his greater active leave without doing box and therefore they ask so much. Although the information does not aim quantities, the Andalusians could want more than 30 million euros by the Hispanic-domincano. The culés have very clear that in the signing of the side do not go to spend more than 20 million euros and have planted in this quantity. The Betis also seems to have planted with the price, with what Junior could move away if one of the two parts does not yield in the next hours.
The Barça has spent too much money
The barcelonistas are fully conscious that with the arrivals of Antoine Griezmann and Frenkie of Jong have spent a lot of money and that can not allow do any madness with the signing of the carrilero. It is precisely therefore by what do not want to spend more than 20 million euros and could lose the occasion of fichar to Firpo.
If the Hispanic-Brazilian finished to move away of the all, the culés could launch to by Philipp Max, side of the Ausburgo. The German would go out cheaper that the player of the Betis and could be an interesting option for the Barcelona. It was as it was, Valverde does not want that the signing dilate too much in the time and expects that in the next two weeks solve the situation.
