Today the transfer market closes.
And Barça still has many open fronts.
Both in the chapter of inputs and outputs.
As for the incorporations,
Ronald Koeman
has passed sentence: he wants
Eric García
and
Memphis Depay
.
Regarding discards, we will have to be very attentive to what may happen with
Rafinha
,
Jean-Clair Todibo
,
Samuel Umtiti
and, above all, with
Ousmane Dembélé
.
The coach has already made it very clear that the striker, the second most expensive signing in the club's history, is behind
Ansu Fati
, who will have to wait until the next game to equal or exceed
Pablo Pombo Quintana's
precocious record
, who scored 11 league goals before turning 18.
The Barça star, who could not extend his streak against Sevilla, has so far 10 and will be of legal age on October 31, with which he has two opportunities left: the duel against Getafe and the classic against Real Madrid.
Depay is his great goal to shore up the lead, that nine that he insisted on claiming after the premiere in the League.
Against Olympique de Marseille, he was left out of the starting team and played just a few minutes. His coach,
Rudy García
, confessed that it was all due both to his form and to what may happen in the outcome of the market.
"He has an agreement. We don't hide it."
And
Juninho Pernambucano
, Lyon's technical secretary, added fuel to the fire by opening the door for him to be a new Barça player today.
«He has an agreement with Barcelona, we do not hide it.
It is possible that Memphis will sign for Barça this Monday, but it is not certain.
Most likely, he will go away, ”he launched after the meeting.
Eric García, meanwhile, Koeman's maximum goal to reinforce the center of the rear, has not even been called up for the last two games that Manchester City has played.
However, the last offer that Barça would have sent him, five million fixed euros to which up to ten more in variables would be added, is very far from the British claims.
Josep Maria Bartomeu
tries to play the trick that he will be able to take over the defender next season without paying a single euro, but the
citizens
are resisting the sales.
The departures chapter, on the other hand, is still very stuck.
Rafinha has already practically taken it for granted that it will continue at least until the next winter market.
Todibo, for his part, is reluctant to leave for Fulham, despite the fact that the English club offers 18 million euros for his signing and Borussia Dortmund has also entered the bid.
Dest and that "amazing feeling"
Umtiti's departure, meanwhile, is very complicated, despite the fact that there has been speculation about the option of using it as a bargaining chip by Depay.
And Dembélé, for his part, has seen how the possibility of joining Manchester United has been diluted after the bet of the
Red Devils
to hire
Edinson Cavani
.
Against Sevilla, the last Barça signing,
Sergiño Dest
, became the first North American to play an official match with Barça when he entered through
Jordi Alba
who left the pitch due to physical discomfort.
«I'll play where the coach needs me, I don't care if it's the right or the left.
This is the stadium of my dreams, the largest in Europe.
Playing here is an incredible feeling, very beautiful, "said the young defender.
