Ivan Rakitic was the player that more sounded to do the cases of the FC Barcelona during the last days of the market of signings. The Croatian midfield player became offered to the PSG in the 'Operation Neymar', but refused the proposal. Afterwards it spoke of the Juventus of Turín, and here yes that accepted the footballer do the cases after the picture 'bianconeri' convinced him.
The case is that finally Juventus and Barça did not put of agreement, because of the high pretences of the Italian team. Always as 'MD', the group directed by Fabio Paratici requested to Ivan Rakitic and a total of 23 million euros in return of Federico Bernardeschi (25 years), the player of the Juventus that the Barça wished to include in the operation.
Rakitic And Bernardeschi are priced in the same quantity in the skilled portal 'Transfermarkt', some 40 million euros. True is that the Croat is six years old more than the Italian, but Rakitic has already a career and a reputation that confirm him like international star, whereas Bernardeschi just is beginning to despuntar after having settled in the team of Maurizio Sarri.
The Barcelona understood that the expectations of the Juventus were too high, and denied to spend 23 'kilos' extra in the market of signings to guarantee the arrival of Bernardeschi, the one who little by little has gone winning the poster to title in the Juventus of Turín. Now, after the contacts between both parts do not have fructificado, foresees that they have new rounds in the markets of 2020.
Rakitic, last season in the Barça?
Rakitic Finishes agreement in 2021, has not renewed and does not foresee that it go to do it. With all probability, will contest this course his last season in the FC Barcelona before leaving , was to the Juventus or to another big club of Europe. The Barça would wish to take out around 50 million euros by his traspaso, but will be increasingly difficult if the Croat does not play with regularity to the orders of Valverde.
For the moment, almost it has not had of minutes in the three first days of League Santander. The 'Txingurri' was pending that it resolved his situation, and from now yes will bet for giving him minutes. The aim, in any case, is that these do not interfere with the hatching of Frenkie of Jong and Arthur Melo, the two young midfield players that have to comandar the room of machines in the future.
