The reasons why Javi Galán walks away from Barça

The Barça continues looking for a left side that bring competition to the staff. In spite of that the performance of Jordi Alba has been correct, the true is that it does not have a natural spare of guarantees inside the first team, something that concerns to a large extent to Xavi Hernández, as it is an exposed flank in case that the one of L'Hospitalet de Llobregat have to ausentarse.

The directive has evaluated to several candidates for the place, and one of them is Javi Galán, the footballer of the Celtic of Vigo. His surroundings knows the interest of the Barcelona and has kept the contacts, but exist several problems that could frustrate his landing in the Camp Nou. The defender has several beaux, so much in League as in the Premier, in addition to having a clause of rescission that is not attractive for the culés.

With 27 years and an agreement until 2026, Galán is one of the most sought-after sides of the Spanish football by the projection that has showed since salio of Córdoba, what has won him a place in the diary of the Seville. Monchi, sportive director of the Andalusian group, is working in ficharle, since it recognises that it is an active important and that the club celtiña is seller.

Added to this, the clause of exit of the of Badajoz is of 18 million euros, a price that nowadays the Barcelona would not be had to pay by a different player to José Luis Gayà. Besides, the Galicians do not contemplate to receive players as 'coin of change', by what Riqui Puig and Martin Braithwaite could not be included in the operation to lighten his cost.

Other options

With Gayà practically descartado and Galán complicating increasingly, the barcelonistas will have to resort to other alternatives to solve his defensive lacks. Alejandro Grimaldo is in the 'orbit' Barcelona and could go out in summer, since the Benfica does not want to see him leave free in 2023. Adrià Pedrosa, of the Espanyol, also is underlined in the list of the FC Barcelona to the equal that Álex Moreno and Nicolás Tagliafico. It will be necessary to see which will be the decision of Xavi and Mateu Alemany during the market estival.
