With more than half the season ahead, at FC Barcelona Rumors continue to arrive about what could happen next summer in terms of transfers.
Apparently, and as recently confirmed by the new sports director Deco, In the month of January, no changes are expected in the culé squad except for the possible resolution of the case Vitor Roque. The Brazilian forward, He is still recovering from his recent injury., could end up in the Barça in january. If that is not the case, He will do it during the next transfer window, But will not be the one.
In recent days, various information has been circulating in the media that has been providing names of future Barça players..
Florentino Luis, one of the signings that Barcelona is pursuing
There is no doubt that one of the positions that the team he currently directs must reinforce. Xavi Hernandez He is the defensive pivot.
the output of Busquets It has left a very difficult gap to fill.. Oriol Romeu not quite adaptable and more than a solution, for the moment, It seems like a patch that is very far from perfectly fulfilling the tasks that this position requires in a game scheme like that of the FC Barcelona.
So, Laporta, Deco and company are scanning the market in search of that defensive pivot and the chosen one, as the newspaper Sport reported, seems to be Florentino Luis.
The footballer of Benfica I like it a lot in ''Can Barça', where they have been following him for a while. Further, recently his agent, Bruno Carvalho, He acknowledged the interest in a statement to 'A Bola':
“I can't hide that it was one of the clubs that looked for Florentino in the summer, there was a lot of talk about him, like other Premier League teams. But Benfica decided to continue with him for more seasons and considered him non-transferable.. In recent years, Florentino has played in European competitions, He is used to big games and it will always be his dream to continue playing in European competitions.”.
The ‘Fair Play’ financial was the main obstacle for the Barça will not go for Florentino Luis last summer and, maybe, This is also the impediment for the future, since the Benfica not willing to sell it for less than 40 millions of euros.
The culés are considering other alternatives
Yes, finally Florentino Luis becomes impossible, at FC Barcelona they would consider the option of Mats Wieffer, Feyenoord player whose progression has been very high and whose price would also be much lower.
