The FC Barcelona will not be able to have Gerard Hammered of face to some of the next commitments in all the competitions, when having lesionado the central Catalan during the final stretch of the party contested in front of the RCD Espanyol in Cornellá-The Prat.
Joined to the absence of Thomas Vermaelen, the one who still is recovering of his last injury, to Ernesto Valverde seems that they finish him the options to conform a defensive saga of full guarantees in the next crashes. But only it seems it, because the true is that it has of until four alternatives, more or less reliable, to accompany to Samuel Umtiti in the defensive axis:
Yerry Mina
It is the first and big alternative to the injury of Gerard Hammered. The aim was that the central Colombian went in in the alignments of progressive way to the not being still adapted to the team, but the injuries of the others two head offices of the staff will do that Valverde, with all probability, bet by Yerry Mina like companion of Samuel Umtiti, at least while the Colombian and the French can play together.
Sergio Busquets
It would not be the first time that a trainer resorts to Sergio Busquets to plant him temporarily in the position of head office. The speed is the main lack of Busquets, that suffers a lot when they take him in career. However, his defensive provision are undoubted and are more than checked with the recitals of recovery of balloon that offers in the defensive pivote. It could be a good option.
Lucas Digne
Luis Enrique already used on time to Digne in the position of head office, and although they are missing him centimetres and is not the all accustomed to said position, could be a 'patch' useful in determinate moments of the parties, as long as the Barça need him. It hits it it is that Digne fracturó the fourth metatarsiano of the right hand against the Espanyol, and could lose also some party.
David Coasts
It is another reliable option. The central youngster of the Barça B is offering a good performance in the filial, is a central consolidated and could assume the opportunity to play with the first team temporarily. Already it has debuted this season 2017-18 in Glass of the King with Ernesto Valverde, what leaves clear that the 'Txingurri' trust he like an alternative of weight when they are missing him central in the first team.
