The wintry market can bring a new reinforcement to the Barça

Although it is not a priority for now, the FC Barcelona no descarta the signing of a central to reinforce the position in which it is having more problems this season 2018-19. Samuel Umtiti and Thomas Vermaelen fell lesionados does some weeks, and since Gerard Hammered and Clément Lenglet have seen forced to accumulate a cuantiosa load of minutes.

This has affected to the defensive performance of the FC Barcelona, by what from the Catalan entity value with interest the possibility of fichar to a new central in January if it exists said option, and as long as it require it the technical body of Ernesto Valverde. For the moment, it will be necessary to see how is the turn to the terrains of game of Samuel Umtiti, that has suffered several physical problems in the last dates.

It will not be easy for the Frenchman recover the spectacular performance of his first times in the Barça, particularly after the last injury that has suffered, and that has done him lose almost all the parties of what carry of campaign. Pep Safe, mánager sportive of the Barça, conceded in the last hours some statements to the 'Chain BE', in which it recognised that the Barça no descarta reinforce with a new defender.

We remember that Samuel Umtiti received the high medical the past week, and was present in the bench in front of the Real Betis.

Matthijs Of Ligt will not be the elected... For now

In spite of everything, exists some risk to a relapse of the injury, that would force him to go through the operating theatre and to lose big part of the season 2018-19. In this case, the club is prepared for fichar to a central, in principle a veteran that could arrive in quality of cession to fulfil half campaign in the Barça, with option to a more if the group culé did not attain to close in summer the signing of Matthijs of Ligt.

What is clear is that the central youngster Dutch will not land in the Camp Nou to half of season, but it will fulfil all the campaign with the Ajax of Amsterdam before giving a possible jump to a big club of Europe in summer of 2019. The Barça is very attentive to his evolutions, and would have him from does already a lot of months in the diary of futuribles.
