Oriol Romeu will not be able to face Barça next season. In the agreement that brought the midfielder to Girona, both clubs agreed on the 'fear clause' that will prevent him from being used by Míchel in the duel against the culés

Calendar of FC Barcelona

After a season of more 'shadows' than 'lights' at FC Barcelona, ​​Oriol Romeu left the Barça discipline to return to Girona. The midfielder is now officially a new player for the red and white team after Montilivi closed a loan agreement with the Barça entity. The player will return to Míchel's orders starting this summer, but he will not meet again with his former team.

And as reported by 'Mundo Deportivo', the footballer's loan contract includes the famous 'fear clause', so he will not be able to take the field in the matches that pit the Girona team against the squad led by Hansi. Flick in official national competition.

This clause is not new at Can Barça, where they have been stipulating it in their loan agreements over the last few seasons. The cases of Ez Abde, Nico González and Pablo Torre are the main examples, with Eric García being one of the few exceptions. Although it seemed that Hansi Flick was counting on him at first, the player asked to leave the team this transfer market and the club accepted his desire to return to Girona due to his professional behavior.

The method to override the clause

These clauses can be nullified by paying a significant amount of money, which is usually over 300 thousand euros, an amount that no team is willing to pay. The big clubs usually use them regularly, but not all federative competitions accept them, and although FIFA banned them in 2014, neither LaLiga nor the RFEF expressly veto them and some teams, such as Real Madrid, continue to resort to them. them at the national level.
