Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona can that have his signing crashes in his own bench. In the last months, and especially in the campaigns in the career by the presidency of the club, has spoken of different forwards to reinforce the team, but the reality is that those who are in the staff have showed that are in the Barça because they deserve it and give spare reasons to trust that, with the step of the time and the adaptation, the attack blaugrana has different variables more than functional.

From the beginning of the campaign, in the Camp Nou has highlighted the work of Ansu Fati (before his injury) and now Pedri González, two youngsters that have won to pulse, with a lot of work, the recognition of the barcelonismo. Both have showed to have wood to triumph, from short age, in a full team of stars and, especially, be able of sometime replace the so important figure of Lionel Messi.

Although it is true that expected more than players like Philippe Coutinho or Antoine Griezmann, there is a footballer that, in silence, with a lot of work -and persistence-, is winning a very important place in the approach of Ronald Koeman.

In the current season, outlined like the last option for Koeman, but has happened of this to turn into a key and essential player so that the culés shine to offensive level.

The work and effort gave resulted

In the summer and in the first months of the competition, the name of Braithwaite jumped like one of the footballers that the Barça went to try sell to do box and, especially, lighten the mass salarial. However, it finished remaining in the City Condal and, after a lot of work, is obtaining the results that he and all the barcelonismo expected.

No by at all it is the third maximum goleador of the culés in this season, with five so many, only by behind Lionel Messi and Ansu Fati. More important still, has known to reinvent and combine to perfection with his mates. In front of the Valladolid, before the stop by the Christmas, showed it. The Danish allowed that Messi and Pedri associated and, therefore, showed the best version of both.
