Nelson Semedo was the right side elected by the FC Barcelona the past season to do him the competition to Sergi Roberto. The Portuguese side cost 30 million euros more another quantity in variables and arrived to the Camp Nou to turn into one of the key players in the right zone of the defence.
In spite of that it has not achieved to do with a gap like titling indisputable by the extraordinary performance of Sergi Roberto, his performance has gone of less to more. Ernesto Valverde began without trusting too much in the possibilities of the Portuguese but, to measure that happened the weeks, was playing more and more until the point to be headline in Champions League.
The good performance of the ex player of the Benfica has not overlooked in the big European clubs and in Italy already see to Semedo in the Naples. "Nelson Semedo, defence of the Barcelona and of the Portuguese selection, could be an option considering that Of Laurentis speaks usually with Mendes", ensured Raffaele Auriemma through RAI.
Sergi Roberto, always by in front
In spite of that Nelson Semedo has gone winning weight in the team with the step of the weeks, Ernesto Valverde has clear that Sergi Roberto is the right side indisputable headline. The Portuguese has lost the battle against the canterano and knows that, in normal conditions, will keep on being a player of rotation without too many opportunities in the key parties.
True is that it seems increasingly adapted to the team, but Sergi Roberto follows being a stair by on, so much by level as by adaptation to the team. The Catalan player knew to expect his opportunity and finished triumphing in a position that was not his, although now it seem that it has played all the life of side.
In spite of this, does not seem that there is intention to sell by part of the FC Barcelona neither to go by part of the player. Nelson Semedo does hardly some months that arrived to the Camp Nou and the Portuguese follows having the intention to struggle by a place in the team of Ernesto Valverde, that every time trusts more in his possibilities.
