The right-back landed in Barcelona during the summer and already has turned into one of the most important players in the approach of Ronald Koeman in Barça

Calendar of FC Barcelona

When Dani Alvés left of the FC Barcelona, the fanatical Barcelona thought that it did not go to have a player that could compare to him. Sergi Roberto, under the orders of Luis Enrique, reached a big level but the shadow of the Brazilian side always was there. In few weeks, Sergiño Dest has showed that, as he said, can turn into the new Alves of the Camp Nou. His trainer has trusted he, the players back it and the fans is convinced that his arrival strengthens enormously to the right band culé (and the left in occasions).

With the arrival of the international with United States, the Barça keeps the hope that it will be a player that will remedy the defensive lagoons that has suffered the club in the last years and that will turn into the perfect ally of Lionel Messi, as it went it Dani Alves in his stage like blaugrana. Only in front of the Real Madrid, where played in his ideal position, already showed of which wood is done. Had the difficult task to mark to Vinicius Jr, a player to the that likes him desbordar by the band and create infinite opportunities of face to the rival arch. With Dest, was impossible that the Brazilian achieved clear opportunities.

Although the Barça did not achieve the victory in the first Classical of the season, if there is something positive is that Ronald Koeman already is safe that Dest will be a referent in his position and a fundamental piece in his approach. With him, the merengues could not generate clear occasions in this sector of the field. It detained to Vinicius, but also kept to Feerland Mendy to the margin, and go that it was necessary so that the Barcelona breathed in the meeting.

A polyvalent player

The best characteristic of Dest is, maybe, his polivalencia. In the Ajax had shined in the right lane, but also has done it in the left and this is something that to Koeman surely likes him. To his 19 years, has showed to be a side of guarantees extremely effective so much in the defensive saga as in the offensive. Up to now, it has dressed the T-shirt blaugrana in four occasions, when it debuted in the tie 1-1 in front of the Seville to replace to Jordi Alba, in front of the Getafe, in the goleada of the Barcelona in front of the Ferencváros and during the Classical.

The party in which less it shined was in the one of the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, also like left side, but is a reality that the image that gave the group blaugrana was not very positive and there was not a lot that do for Dest. However, the trainer and his mates are satisfied and surprised by his exert. To Gerard Hammered, for example, already has seen him in distinct opportunities applauding him in the field by his performances.
