The dilemma of the Barcelona with Ilaix and Wijnaldum

Justo now, the Barcelona studies how will define his staff for the next season. However, his priority is to ensure the future of Ilaix Moriba (18 years), bet of the club in which it also trusts the trainer Ronald Koeman.

The míster of the culés, besides, asked also that fichara to the Dutch midfield player of the Liverpool, Georginio Wijnaldum (30 years), that remains free after finish agreement around the middle of this year. Still it is missing them for deciding how organise all the pieces of which will have, especially to economic level, where the Barça studies to prioritise spend big part of what have in the signing of a forward of weight.

"They are profiles of different footballers and is not well compare", explain to Sportive World near people to the Barcelona club when it compares to Ilaix with Wijnaldum. And it is that with the irruption of the canterano is easy to ask if the arrival of the Dutch player could suppose a fetter so that it develop

In fact, some directors and executives in the club that aim that the centre of the field would be more than covered, although they are conscious that the international Dutch is a good opportunity since it would arrive without having to pay him to the combined of the "reds" by a traspaso.

Independently of the decision that finish taking, in the Barça are calm, although they admit that the places in the field are those that are and that afterwards will be the trainer the one who will decide to who puts. Both players have lung and skill, but Wijnaldum is of the footballers that bite, that presionan, more aggressive.

Instead, Ilaix is more creator, with more touch and clearly formed to play the football of the Barcelona. It is thus that in the entity want to ensure the future of the canterano. Besides, they expect that it have prominence the next season. Moriba Finish agreement in 2022 but do not want to expect more and the aim of the executives of the Barcelona is to guarantee the continuity in the combined Catalan.

His previous renewal

The renewal of 2019 of the agreement of the youngster was long. In fact, the potential that in that then had showed was such that the negotiations carried it Pep Safe and Eric Abidal, which were used to to be the responsible maxima of Barcelona football and that centred in the first team. In spite of the interest of teams like the Manchester City or Chelsea in him, Ilaix always had clear his wish to remain in the Barça.

Moriba, by his part, follows centred in triumphing like blaugrana and the club wants to keep the bet that did by him three years ago. In that occasion, could not renew it by more seasons because the UEFA does not allow to sign to minors of age more than three campaigns.

Two options and another dilemma

On the other hand, the possible signing of Wijnaldum is still in the table, to the equal that the one of Memphis Depay. Both are express wish of Koeman. In the Barça take into account the requests of the technician, but in the case of Wijnaldum there is a detail: His index card is high and one of the aims is to free mass salarial. If besides it joins Ilaix to the wide payroll of midfield players, the arrival of the player of the Liverpool can happen to a flat second.
