DOES BARÇA TAKE A RISK WITH JOAO?
The 'dangers' of the signing of Joao Félix by Barça
At FC Barcelona there are many expectations with the arrival of Joao Félix. They understand that he is a player who will easily fit into Xavi Hernández's system and that he could be important if he has more continuity
The FC Barcelona closed the incorporation of Joao Félix in conditions very favourable for the club. A simple cession in which they have to assume, only, a wage that rondaría the 400.000 euros this year more bonus. An operation without economic risks in which the blaugrana have known to convince to the Athletic of Madrid so that they yielded in front of the pressure of the own player to leave to the City Condal.
The insistence of the footballer of 23 years has been key for desencallar his traspaso. From the Cívitas Metropolitan insisted in that only they posed his exit through a sale or cession remunerada, but finally accepted the conditions of the Barça and left to go out to the Portuguese after renewing until 2029. Until there, both parts come off well. The culés have an alternative more in the attack and the 'Cholo' Simeone gives off of a player that did not go in in his plans. But there is much more that this.
It made a mistake the Barça with the conditions?
As we mentioned before, the Barcelona entity achieved a simple cession in which it did not have to pay any economic compensation to the picture rojiblanco. To put it in context, Chelsea had to pay eleven million euros to do with the services of Joao by half season, without an option of purchase... Although the Athletic was more than willing to negotiate. The intention of the Madrilenian was to repeat the formula with the Barça.
However, in front of the economic problems and with the Fair Play financial seated bases much more 'amicable' in the economic sense in the short term. The Catalans did not have any possibility to opt by an option of purchase for the summer of 2024 and is the risk that, if the player explodes in this season and finally can show his best version, afterwards the Athletic of Madrid want to sell it by a very high price.
It is a possibility that is on the table, but only the time will dictate sentence and will give or no the reason to the Catalans. In the meantime, they have to take advantage of and try explode all the qualities of a Joao Félix that is very ilusionado to fulfil his dream and dress of Barcelona. It comes of a very complicated year and to be prescindible for the 'Cholo' Simeone, something that can serve him of petrol to claim this season and show that it is the star that so much thought in 2019 when it went out of the Benfica.
In research of the gap for Joao Félix
Independently of what can happen of here to nine months, supposes an opportunity of gold for the culés. Still it is entredicho how will fit him Xavi Hernández in his system. It debuted like an extreme by the left, but in front of the few minutes and fault of 'connection' after an only training completed, is very soon to take out conclusions. Although it is a player with a lot of mobility, versatile and that it can be key for dinamizar the attack, still is necessary to define where would feel more comfortable and, more important still, where could surrender more. Everything seems to indicate to that in the system of 4-4-2 is where will be more recurrent, but still there is a lot of way by in front.
