Riqui Puig is one of the big talents that have gone out of the Masia in the last years. The one of Matadepera became considered the best project of footballer of the quarry, but to his 21 years still has not attained to settle in the first team. The Catalan is one more than the staff, but is not explaining absolutely at all for Ronald Koeman and gives the feeling that it could be stagnating.

Taking into account that hardly it is playing this campaign, his contractual situation raised some suspicacia. The mediocampista finishes agreement this 2021 and, in principle, still there was not pactado his renewal. Luckily, this could have changed already officially, since as 'Sportive World', the international Sub-21 by Spain already would have signed an extension.

Puig only has contested 4 minutes in LaLiga, 3 against the Getafe and 1 in front of the Eibar, and 74 minutes in Champions League divided in three meetings. It is a bagaje tremendously poor that leaves clear that the trainer barcelonista does not want him in the staff. In fact, he same has said in several occasions in press conference that the best for him would be that it went yielded.

Koeman Will try to convince him so that it leave at least until summer, but the player has intention to refuse all the proposals that arrive him. It trusts his possibilities and now that Philippe Coutinho has lesionado thinks that could have more opportunities. It will be necessary to see what finishes occurring finally and how goes out him the bet to the young perla of the quarry culé.
