Mateu Alemany could have the 'key' to signing Joao Félix for Barça

The future of Mateu Alemany still is an incógnita. Since it abandoned the FC Barcelona, officially at the beginning of September, has kept in discussions on his following step in the world of the football. Right now, it finds negotiating with the Athletic of Madrid to turn into the responsible maximum of the sportive area of the picture rojiblanco, a charge that up to now did not exist in the Cívitas Metropolitan, but that it could give him a lot of 'can' to take decisions in the club.

The negotiations are not closed, but everything seems to indicate to that will concretise . Will have an infinity of tasks for resolving in the dispatches of the Athletic and will work of the hand with Andrea Berta, sportive director of the club, a stair by on. The true is that, between one of the so many folders to resolve will be the one of Joao Félix, whose future is in the air but corresponds him go back to Madrid on 30 June 2024, when it wins his cession in the FC Barcelona.

Joao Félix, meeting point between Barça and Alemany

The continuity of the Portuguese attacker in the Barça is not ensured. Joan Laporta, president of the picture blaugrana, recognised in the last hours that "I want to that it remain the best of the Barça. Joao Félix, likes me a lot of always", but is an operation that will depend of the performance of the player to measure that it advance the season and the decisions of Deco and the sportive area to the hour to schedule the next season. It has not taken the decision definitva, still.

In the club are very conscious that it will not be a simple operation, because from the Athletic have left clear that do not want to give to Joao Félix, although it does not go in in the plans of Diego Pablo Simeone. The intention is to recover part of the investment that did by him in 2019, when they paid to the Benfica 127 million euros by his traspaso. According to the first reports, in case to be still in ascending line, will ask the 54 'kilos' that remain for amortising and a 'extra' to generate profits. The traspaso could rondar the €80m.

The true is that, as it seems, will be Mateu Alemany the one who will be to charge of the operation if it finishes recalando in the Cívitas Metropolitan. The one of Andratx will be the one who have more weight in the sportive area and, therefore, will be commissioned of the big operations. It will correspond him negotiate with the one who until does some weeks was his mate in the Barça, Deco. They could not share a lot and they were varied the rumours on a quite taut relation (by Juan Foyth and the called of the Barça), but now will touch them mediate in research of a solution that benefit to all the parts.

Agreement complicated for the Barça

Alemany And Deco, in this sense, will have to seat the bases of the agreement so that it was 'approved' by the maximum mandators of the club. It will not be a simple negotiation, neither much less, but everything seems to indicate to that it will be a folder in which it will begin to work from January of 2024. The Barça knows very well that it is not in conditions to assume a traspaso millionaire, but also is conscious that the Athletic will not give to one of his big stars.
