One of the lines that more headaches generate him to Joan Laporta of face to the next season is the defence. The constant injuries of key players like Gerard Hammered or Sergi Roberto, have evidenciado that some footballers do not have the necessary level to lead the defensive axis of the Barcelona picture. It is the case, for example, of Lenglet and Samuel Umtiti, to those who the new president of the FC Barcelona will look for to give them gone out in summer.

The decision to go out of the mentioned footballers has been premeditada, with the end to avoid the overbooking in the saga and obtain a good budget for new signings. And it is that, Laporta contemplates a revolution in the axis. His plan is to give him greater importance to canteranos like Ronald Araujo and Mingueza, and to youngsters like Sergiño Dest. But neither it closes the door to incorporations that offer a good performance immediately.

Eric García could arrive sure. The last informations indicate that it could sign this same week. His arrival would be a big opportunity of market, as the player grew in the Farm and will land in the Camp Nou to cost zero after finalising his agreement with the Manchester City. It is a central that, with alone 20 years, already is to title with the Spanish selection and aims to lead the Barcelona saga in the next decade.

By his part, Emerson also has ones how many numbers. His performance in the Betis seems to be convincing to Laporta, by what the club could disburse some nine millions to the béticos to do with his services this same market of summer. It could be a big alternative to contest the place of right side to Sergiño Dest, of the that neither descarta his sale if it arrives an offer convincente.

Two signings complicated

The others two signings to complete the four positions of the defence antojan a bit more complicated. One of them is David Praises. The Austrian footballer will not renew with the Bayern Munich and will be free agent this market of summer. The auction to do with his services has inaugurated , and seems that the Barça and the Real Madrid occupy the forward. His versatility, experience, exit of balloon and excelsa quality multiply his value. Besides, it has 29 years, by what still subtract him several years of margin to triumph in the elite.

His high economic requirements is the big problem: it demands to earn 22 million euros to the year with an agreement of five years. His incorporation only could make if before it gives gone out to players of weight with important wages, such as Griezmann, Umtiti or Coutinho. Nevertheless, the option also would serve of a big reinforcement for the centre of the field, that forces to the Barça to try his signing.

José Gayà closes the list. The left side of Valencia likes him to Laporta, and a lot. It is a position that has meant a true headache for the Barcelona picture during the last years. It has been impossible to hit in an able signing to replace the functions of Jordi Alba. Junior Firpo has been the last in not fulfilling with the expectations. Undoubtedly, the dominican forms part of the list of cleaning of Laporta. Obtain an important quantity by him, would facilitate the incorporation of the side of Valencia, priced in 40 millions, and with a grata relation with the new director of football, Mateu Alemany.
