It approximates the turn of the "joker", Sergi Roberto

The party between the FC Barcelona and the Athletic of Madrid, played on 21 November of the past year, went one of which left more sequelas in the surroundings of the club in general. No only by the defeat that the directed by Diego Simeone propinaron to the ones of Ronald Koeman, by 1-0, but also by the drops that produced in in the crash, being the same the ones of Gerard Hammered and Sergi Roberto.

Whereas the experienced central defender Catalan was diagnosed with a grave sprain, that would keep it moved away of the terrains of game by a time estimated between three and eight months, the polyvalent canterano had his planned turn for finals of the common month of January. In this sense and, knowingly that it is near to return, the options that has Sergi Roberto in the plans of Ronald Koeman cover several spaces.

In principle, it expects that the player formed in The Farm go back to share the place of right side with Sergiño Dest, the one who has been the headline from the injury of Roberto and has strengthened to the position. However and, to the not having another acting for the place, the North American has added an important load of parties in his legs, by what the rotation between both will be quite necessary, once the canterano of the Barcelona go back to be available.

On the other hand, Sergi Roberto could be used in the midfield, going back to his original position, to give something of rest to Sergio Busquets and to Frenkie of Jong, the usual in said position. The fault of confidence that Ronald Koeman has showed to have in Miralm Pjanic and the need to generate a rotation that guarantee the rest for all the players of the central axis of the alignment would be the main causes of the inclusion of the ex Barcelona B in this demarcation.

The exit of Aleñá plays to his favour

A factor that Sergi Roberto has to his favour once happen the two weeks estimated for his turn to the availability, is the exit of Carles Aleñá, the one who split as yielded to the Getafe at the beginning of this month. Although the now player azulón was not of the main options for the rotations of Ronald Koeman, is a competition less with which the polyvalent footballer will have to combat.

Anyway, the turn of Sergi Roberto is next to generate and is one of the best news that can have the Barcelona in this moment, due to the fact that it expanded the fan of options with which Koeman will explain for the final stretch of the season. Of equal way, the reinsersión of the canterano in the first staff will have to do with the sufficient patience so that the same restart the competitive rhythm of the correct way.
