With the market of signings 2017 finished, the wails and triumphs of big and small clubs become the norm. The FC Barcelona has not been able to fichar to Philippe Coutinho and this has been a triumph for the Liverpool, to the time that other teams have achieved to retain also to any of his stars, avoiding like this the interest of the 'fat fish' of the market.
It is the case of the Seville, that has achieved the gesta to keep in the staff to Steven N'Zonzi, one of the best players of his staff and that sounded for the FC Barcelona in diverse occasions along this past summer.
The FC Barcelona finally decanted by the profile of Paulinho to reinforce the centre of the field with a footballer 'all-terrain' and of long route regarding kilometraje refers , but of have not chosen to the Brazilian N'Zonzi would have been an alternative more than convincente no only for Ernesto Valverde, but for the greater part of the fans of the Barcelona group.
N'Zonzi, what could be and was not
With the same age that Paulinho and a lot of more experience in Europe -and in concrete in LaLiga-, N'Zonzi carries already some seasons showing his enormous quality in the Seville, that joins to a physical potential that served him the past course to sign stellar performances, as when he solito 'ate' to all the centre of the field of the Real Madrid in the Sánchez Pizjuán, in a party of final rounds of the Glass of Rey.
N'Zonzi Would have been a player more than valid for the FC Barcelona, as well as for other big clubs that, like the Juventus, pretended him. However, the luck for the barcelonistas is that we will be able to follow enjoying of his quality this season 2017-18. It could have arrived by the same price that Paulinho, 40 million euros. However, the bet of the technical office was the Brazilian. We will see if it is the hit.
