Deco and Sport Recife maintain contacts for the 17-year-old Brazilian ‘pearl’, Z\u00e9 Lucas. Bar\u00e7a, however, does not see the signing of the midfielder this year as feasible.<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

The board of directors of FC Barcelona<\/a> remains attentive to the main stars of the future of South American football. One of the players that the azulgrana team has been following for several weeks is Z\u00e9 Lucas, a 17-year-old midfielder who is aiming to make the leap to Europe next season.<\/p>

The Pernambuco native is already an undisputed starter with Sport Recife in the Brasileirao<\/strong>, where he has already played a total of eight matches. The youngster is a natural pivot, but he can also play as an inside player leaning towards his left to enhance his most skillful leg (the right).<\/p>

Deco<\/a> and the ‘rojinegro’ team have had several meetings addressing the possible incorporation of the youngster. However, according to ‘SPORT’, the azulgrana board has already ruled out this operation<\/strong> for exclusively sporting reasons.<\/p>

The ‘overbooking’ of midfielders closes the doors of Bar\u00e7a to Z\u00e9 Lucas<\/h2>

Although he is a player with excellent potential, Bar\u00e7a has more than enough players for the position of pivot\/defensive midfielder. Marc Casad\u00f3<\/a> and Frenkie de Jong<\/a> did a great job last season covering this position.<\/p>

In addition, the team is fully confident in the recovery of Marc Bernal<\/strong>, who hopes to reappear in August after almost a year out due to a very serious injury to his right knee.<\/p>

Eric Garc\u00eda<\/a> can also lend a hand as a pivot in emergency cases, with which Bar\u00e7a has this area of the field well covered, which, not long ago, gave so many headaches after the departure of Sergio Busquets<\/a>.<\/p>

Z\u00e9 Lucas, according to Brazilian media, could arrive in Catalonia for a figure close to 12-15 million euros<\/strong>. Although it would be a stellar reinforcement for the azulgrana subsidiary, the relegation of Bar\u00e7a Atl\u00e8tic to the Second Federation (fourth division) rules out the arrival of dazzling signings this year.<\/p>

Sport Recife hopes to send Z\u00e9 Lucas to LaLiga in 2025<\/h2>

Despite Bar\u00e7a’s ‘no’, Sport Recife is considering other alternatives for its young figure, who dreams of playing in Spain in 2025. The midfielder will turn 18 next March<\/strong> and the board of his club hopes to meet soon with emissaries from Betis and Sevilla<\/strong>.<\/p>

The ‘verdiblanco’ team already had defender Natan (24) and Vitor Roque<\/a> in their ranks in the first half of 24\/25, while the Hispalenses also have central defender Marcao (29) as a Brazilian representative in their squad.<\/p>

Betis, in fact, does not rule out recovering Antony<\/strong> after the good image left by the Manchester United winger in his loan for six months. Will Andalusia be the next destination for the ‘pearl’ of Sport Recife?<\/p>
