The story of how Jorthy Mokio ended up escaping from FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona again has been protagonist of a negotiation by a young promise that has not arrived to good term, in spite of being very near to attain it. In this occasion, the Barcelona cast will have to sack of his options to purchase to the promising Belgian defender of 16 years, Jorthy Mokio, the one who, to fault of oficialización, will join to the Ajax, putting end to a small 'serial' that had developed in the last days around his figure.

In principle, everything seemed to indicate that the Catalan picture had some favouritism in the 'career' to hire to the central. In fact, Mokio and his family, accompanied of the agents Sam Carrillo and Paolo Schiavone of SCM Sports Agency, travelled to the City Condal to know the installations of the Ciutat Espuerta. As it informed 'Sportive World', the Barcelonan group took advantage of this visit to do his first movement and present an initial offer, that although it did not fulfil with the agreed economic pretences by the surroundings of the Belgian, at least showed the serious intentions of the Barça to do of his services.

In this point, the FC Barcelona kept live the hope of fichar to the canterano of the KAA Gent, because of two factors: the support of the family of Mokio so that the defender finish in a big club like the combined culé, with a very recognised quarry and formadora of big talents like The Masia, and the apparent predilection of the 'escudero' by the sportive project offered and the opportunity to dress the elastic Barcelona, since the club has showed in the happened his disposal to give opportunities to debut to young promises in the first team.

Now, the past 18 May past carried out a meeting in which they were present the sportive director Deco, the familiar of the player and his representatives, Sam Carrillo and Paolo Schiavone, with the aim to advance in his incorporation.

This hermetismo of the surroundings of Jorthy Mokio to answer the first proposal of the club began to generate some uncertainty in the Barcelona sportive direction, especially considering that they followed carrying out conversations between these and Toni Hernández, coordinator of the basic football. In the meantime, they arose rumours that two big clubs of the Eredivisie, the PSV Eindhoven and the Ajax, were interested in knowing the situation of the defender and went in to scene with a remarkable strength.

The options of the FC Barcelona lost strength by the economic pretences of the family of the defender

To his time, this combined with a strategy of the surroundings of the player, that tried to attract the attention of the greater possible quantity of teams and 'fatten' his value in the market, looking for an offer economically more yielding by part of the FC Barcelona. When seeming, attained this, since the Barcelonan picture did not doubt in increasing his bet by the Belgian defender. However, in spite of the efforts of the culés for presenting a new proposal, this did not approach to the premium of signing offered by other squares. Therefore, to the club only remained him expect that the sportive project and his options of growth in the ecosystem culé attained to seduce to Mokio and his gathered, so that finally they decanted in favour of the Catalans.

Lamentably, for the FC Barcelona, that already perceived that had every time less possibilities to do with the services of the Belgian, as it informs 'MD', never received answer of the familiar surroundings of the player, not even because the representatives of the defender went back to communicate with them to try obtain a positive answer. This occurred because apparently already had taken a decision, that was the one to sign with the Ajax, remaining in the at all the efforts of the Barcelona club and his agency of representation to concretise this operation.
