Sergio Busquets could say goodbye to FC Barcelona this summer and that is why the club is scanning the market in search of a midfielder that can replace him. In these moments, it seems that the list of the culés is made up of three players that in 'FCBN' we have wanted to analyze

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona looks for mediocentro from does some time, but is now when the signing has gone back more urgent because of the possible exit of Sergio Busquets. The one of Badia finishes agreement this summer and by the words of Xavi Hernández seems that his course is more than a possibility. Thus, from the club look for solutions and seemingly there are three pivote in the list of possible reliefs of the '5' Barcelona.

Seemingly, Nordin Amrabat, N'Golo Kanté and Rúben Neves would be the three footballers that more like to the entity. Three players with different styles, with prices very distinct and that would not fit of the same way with the style of the Barça. It is by all this by what suits to analyse them in depth, as we have done in 'FCBN', explaining the virtues, the defects, the cost that would have and the form to play of all to try know who would be the best signing.

N'Golo Kanté, the big 'bargain' of the market

The French is with difference the name more mediático of this list and in his 'prevail' the best player of the three. Kanté Became during several years one of the best midfield players of the world, but now is something far of this. The past course of the Frenchman already was something irregular by the physical problems, but in the current directly only has been able to play four meetings by an injury in the isquiotibiales that has complicated him .

All this has done that Chelsea doubt on his future in the club, since is 32 years old and a recent record of injuries that concerns. It is thus by what the 'blues' have not accessed to pay him what is asking for renewing and the mediocampista could go free this summer, since it finishes agreement. It is one 'bargain' in all rule and is therefore by what in Barcelona are very to the so much of his situation.

However, in the Camp Nou have clear that his age and his recent physical problems do that it can not throw the 'house by the window' by him. The culés do not seem had to offer him a high wage and he does not seem by the work to go down his pretences, by what a possible agreement seems far. Only in case that the Parisian accept to earn a more acceptable wage will contemplate the signing for real.

A half different that could give a lot of things

Kanté Is not a mediocentro defensive to the use, but always has been able to surrender to big level so much of pivote as of interior. It does not have at all that see with Busquets regarding style and is another type of half, but this does not want to say that no lace in this FC Barcelona. His dynamism, his brutal skill to steal, his impressive way to cover all the field and his good individual technician would be a complement very good for the centre of the field barcelonista. It could complement well with Frenkie of Jong, since it is not a player of base and would follow allowing to the Dutch go down to receive, and also would fit well with Pedri and Gavi.

Against of the Frenchman play his possible wage, the already mentioned physical problems, since the picture of Xavi Hernández can not allow the luxury of fichar a pivote so that half pass year lesionado, and also the fact that it never has played in LaLiga neither in a team with the philosophy of the Barça, and would need a period of adaptation. But in spite of this, is a 'bargain' and could be a 'bombazo' if at the end it arrived.

Sofyan Amrabat, the mediocentro of the World-wide

Seemingly, the Moroccan is the favourite of the group blaugrana to turn into the relief of 'Busi'. His incredible World-wide put him in looks it of several 'big' of Europe and since the Barcelona seems the best planted to carry it. In January, the culés tried to achieve his cession and was not far to attain it, but finally the Fiorentina denied to leave him leave and the pivote remained in Italy.

However, Amrabat finishes agreement in 2024 and does not seem by the work to want to renew, by what if the 'Fiore' wants to do box with him is now or never. After his big Glass of the World commented that the Italians wanted to take out 50 million euros by him, but right now seems that it could go out by enough less. The Barça will not be able to arrive to this quantity by his situation with the Fair Play of LaLiga, but perhaps yes could reach the 25 or 30 'kilos'. Besides, in this sense his wage would be low, since he dreams with playing in the Camp Nou and would accept to win less than in other places with such to do it.

Amrabat, a solid pivote to strengthen the midfield

Like footballer, Sofyan does not have at all that see with Sergio, but is a mediocentro of a lot of level. To his 26 years seems to have given the necessary jump to play in the elite and has qualities that to the ones of Xavi would come him of 'perlas'. It is very strong and physicist, and in defence marks the difference in the theft, in the helps to the sides and in the 'tackling'. Besides, technically it is a good player in spite of not being neither much less a superdotado. It plays easy, can go out driving because of his power and rare time commits an error in exit.

Against of the Moroccan plays the fact that it never has been in a 'big' and neither has showed to cost for a team that dominate from the ball. Although it gives the feeling to be able to do both things, does not leave to be an incógnita in this sense. Luckily, the pressure would not be so big, since it would not arrive to be indisputable, but it would be more a complement to Frenkie of Jong, that would split like mediocentro title with almost total security.

Rúben Neves, eternal alternative for the half

The Portuguese carries from the past year being related with the FC Barcelona. In several occasions even commented that it was almost fact and that it was the elected of the culés, but finally seems that it is the one who less consensus has of the three players of this list. Economically it is the most expensive of all, although to his favour is that Jorge Mendes is his agent and the luso has a big relation with Joan Laporta, by what the agreement would be relatively simple.

Against of Neves plays especially his price, as it has said , since has a value of market of 40 million euros and the Wolverhampton hardly goes him to leave go out by less than 40-50 'kilos'. The player finish agreement in 2024, by what could presionar looming with going free in a year if the Wolves do not go down the price, although it seems complicated that the English sell him by less.

Neves, a mediocentro positional with good touch

In the futbolístico, Neves is not so dominant in the defensive section like Kanté and Amrabat. Yes it is tácticamente remarkable and has some skill to steal and to go to the floor, but neither much less stands out as much as the French and the Moroccan. In what himself is better that both Rúben is in the pass in short and especially in the trip in long, where shines with his changes of orientation measured. By against, it is something slow and, although technically it is well, neither much less thinks so fast like the Busquets or Toni Kroos, examples of slow footballers that compensate this fault of dynamism with his reading of game.

By 25-30 'kilos', taking into account that it still has 26 years and that by style could fit in the Barça, the one of the Portuguese would be a very good signing for the centre of the field. However, by the 40 or 50 that seems that they go to ask, the ex of the Port wine is surely the reinforcement that less would have to pose the FC Barcelona of this list, especially taking into account his problems with the Fair Play.
