In this context, desveló that the FC Barcelona has a principle of agreement for the signing of a central. Robert Fernández did not want to give names, but intuye that the elected is not another that Yerry Mina, young Colombian defender of the Palmeiras by the one who the Barça would have a preferential option from does months, and that it could land in the Camp Nou in January of 2018.

Although for the moment the current staff is surrendering to a big level in all the competitions, soon could announce some arrival more than face to the market of winter. From Brazil already confirmed weeks backwards the agreement by Yerry Mina, a traspaso that the Catalans had in mind but had not finish to close.

Only it is missing to know when it will be the official date of his landing, but now comes the doubt on if the young Colombian defender is ready, without having played never in Europe, to do it in one of the best teams of the world as it is the FC Barcelona. The potential and the provision of Yerry Mina are undoubted, but is possible that need a wide period of adaptation before surrendering to the best level in the Barça.

It is thus that the trainer of the FC Barcelona, Ernesto Valverde, would have asked also the signing of a central contrasted of LaLiga or of an important European league, so that of this way the Barcelona do not remain 'lame' in the saga neither short of available head offices in the case that Vermaelen or Mascherano, or can that the two, do the cases in the short term.

The agreement between Barça and Palmeiras

Alexandre Matto, sportive director of the Palmeiras, went in September the attendant to give the news, in an interview for 'Globoesporte' where ensured that the Colombian would dress the Barcelona T-shirt by 9 million euros. The injury that left to the central out of fight will not be finally an obstacle so that the signing do reality, since it already is recovered.

The leader also referred to that the agreement with the Barça would mean the permanence of Yerry Mina in the 'verdao' to the end of season, by what, attending to the closing of the competition in Brazil -that produces in December-, his trip until the City Condal would do effective in January.

Coutinho Also can arrive

Although Yerry Mina seems the first option to reinforce a saga for which Ernesto Valverde has asked retouchings, could not being the last complement for the staff. Without precipitating events but with a marked interest, the Barça looks for more signings for to reinforce in winter, with the big priority to incorporate to Coutinho so that it play in the medullary and in positions of attack.
