Raiola confirms it: De Ligt could play for Barça in 2022

Matthijs Of Ligt is smart for a new stage in his career and will abandon the Allianz Stadium, as it has confirmed recently his agent, Mino Raiola. The Dutch is not happy with the Juventus and will move in the market of signings of 2022, although his agreement wins in 2024. The FC Barcelonto is between the list of teams to which could recalar for the next season... A traspaso possible?

"I think that all know which clubs mention for Matthijs of Ligt as 'next step'. We will see this summer", said to US. Questioned by the teams and if his destination was in England, Mino Raiola aimed that "Premier League? Also it can be the Barcelona, the Real Madrid or Paris Saint-Germain…", stood out. Like this then , 'advance' the exit of the defender of the 'Vecchia Signora' for next summer and open the doors for a Barça that carries long interested in Of Ligt.

In fact, in 2019, when the central (and Frenkie of Jong, also) went out of the Ajax, the FC Barcelona aimed like one of his possible destinations, but finished decanting by the Juventus after a conversation with Cristiano Ronaldo in the final of the Nations League of this year. Three seasons afterwards, is smart for a new challenge, conscious that in Turín are far to be, right now, the 'power' that they were does some years.

And the Barça can that it was expecting him. It is a player that likes to the sportive direction, but is some also that there is 'overbooking' of head offices right now (Gerard Hammered, Eric García, Òscar Mingueza, Ronald Araújo, Clément Lenglet and Samuel Umtiti), and at least four of them do not have intentions to abandon the Camp Nou in the short term. First it would have to have one 'cleaning' to arrive to think in a movement pot Of Ligt in the summer.

Traspaso Millionaire

It is necessary to take in account, on the other hand, that the international with Holland is a footballer very very valued in the market. 'Transfermarkt' Puts him 70 million euros of price and, although probably the Juventus leave him go out by less, treats of a traspaso millionaire that, adía of today, the Barça could not assume, explaining besides that the main aim of the culés is to reinforce the forward and achieve a '9'.

In any case, from Italy have signalled in some occasion that the team chaired by Andrea Agnelli would be had to leave him leave if like this it wants it. This yes, his price of exit will not be economic and will want to recover part of the investment of 75 millions (more 10,5 in variables) that did by Of Ligt in 2019 when it ficharon from the Ajax of Ásterdam.
