Gustavo Maia adds four parties without seeing action with the Barça B. It will not be able to play this Sunday in front of the Llagostera. Also it will lose , next Sunday 13 December, the derbi of Catalonia of subsidiaries, in front of the Espanyol B. The doubt for the second team of the Barcelona is: it will be able to Maia go back for 20 December?

The Barcelona incorporated to the forward from the Sao Paulo by an operation that rises to 4,5 million euros. Of this way arrived to the Barcelona subsidiary, with 19 years and signature until 30 June of the 2025, in addition to a clause of rescission of 300 million euros.

In total, Maia won seven titles with the Sao Paulo in inferior teams. It is an extreme with speed, verticality and that stands out his game by the left band, valuing his name in the season 2018-19 with 30 goals in 36 parties with the team paulista. It was international with Brazil in the categories sub-16 and sub-17, performances that convert his announcement to the selection sub-20 in an opportunity to follow developing his potential.

The true is that the current team of Gustavo Maia, the Barcelona B, has not trusted the player, by which have paid 4,5 million euros.

Gustavo Maia still does not find his best version in the Barça B

By his part, if Gustavo Maia convinced to the selection 'canarinha', in the three meetings that will have with the category sub-20, dazzling with his brilliant game, that plants it like one of the best promises of the Farm, sería a sensitive drop for the next dates of the Barcelona B since it will lose a significant number of important parties. Up to now it is the only footballer of the filial to the that could affect him this situation in his exert with the club.

It will be difficult for the Brazilian Maia, because in the first eight days of the tournament of the Second Division of Spain, that hardly begins, has not been able to show the high price that paid he Barça. Adding the parties that can lose, will hamper his performance to triumph and stand out in his first season.
