The non-signing of Nico Williams forces FC Barcelona to rethink its market strategy regarding incorporating another left winger. The 'rejections' of the Athletic forward, for the second consecutive year, invite the Culé board to make a splash with a 'bomb' signing. Should the club try with Rodrygo Goes?
The Brazilian international is going through his worst moment with Real Madrid. Although he started the Club World Cup as a starter, providing an assist in the draw against Al Hilal (1-1), Xabi Alonso has opted for Arda Güler in the following four games for the 'merengues', leaving the '11' on the bench.
In that sense, the Osasco native, although he has a contract until 2028, is on the way out, but Madrid will hardly let him go for less than 90-100 million euros. Although in Chamartín he has had to play on the right due to the presence of Vinicius, his natural position is that of left winger.
Barça already had him on their radar in 2018, but the Whites interfered in the negotiations with Santos and ended up signing him for 45 million. Should the Culés go for the Brazilian? Obviously it would be a 'bomb' signing, but the complex Azulgrana financial situation makes any operation of such magnitude very difficult.
