The future of Koundé is in his more key moment and in the Barça there is some fear, although the own footballer has left clear that would prefer recalar in the Spotify Camp Nou. Nevertheless, the Barcelona sportive direction wants to cover the backs and have been working in the list of alternatives in case that, finally, the Parisian recale in the Stamford Bridge.
