It arrived to the Camp Nou like a bet of Andoni Zubizarreta, but in spite of the confidence of the then technical secretary, does not have cuajado in the FC Barcelona. This summer could confirm the definite course of Thomas Vermaelen after three seasons, a lot of injuries and little luck, but in the campaign of his possible goodbye still there will be time for some joys.
Because although it split like last option in the centre of the defence, the Belgian has chained two consecutive headlines with Ernesto Valverde, a trainer convinced of his quality although also something concerned by his physical state. It defended the Txingurri his participation in Mestalla, and after the positive answer of the central in the terrain of game, has won a new opportunity.
It did almost two years that the one of Kapellen was not chosen in two parties followed for the eleven initial, since the last occasion was in January of 2016, the days 23 and 27, in a party of League in the Rosaleda and another of Glass against the Athletic, in the Camp Nou. Then it contested 46 and 69 minutes respectively, a figure that, for his own confidence, already has been able to surpass.
Yes it explains
Although there were some doubts on the guarantees that offered Vermaelen along the course, seems that his last apparitions have guaranteeed him a permanence until the next month of June. It was the own footballer the one who regretted the fault of minutes, but after speaking with the technicians, his exit would have postponed until the market of summer.
