Ronald Koeman wants a center-back for January and would have given Barça another name, in addition to the well-known Eric García. The coach would have asked Lisandro Martínez, Ajax defender, to whom the Catalans could try to bring on loan

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The injury of Gerard Hammered has been a very hard hit for the FC Barcelona. The Catalan, leader of the Barcelona saga, will be of drop at least until the month of March, by what will lose good part of the present season. With Clément Lenglet to a level bajísimo, with the incógnita of Samuel Umtiti and with two novices like Ronald Araújo and Óscar Mingueza, the defence barcelonista seems to remain something short without the '3'.

By this reason, Ronald Koeman has asked to Eric García​ for the month of January. The player of the Manchester City already was the big aim of the Barça for the defence in summer, but finally could not reach an agreement with the English for his purchase. The Barcelonan finishes agreement in 2021 and does not go to renew, by what could go out cheap in winter, reason whereby the trainer of Zaandam presionará so that the operation do .

Nevertheless, the City does not think to give to the young promise and this could complicate the traspaso, since the Barcelona does not have money. By this reason, the Dutch technician would have given another name that aims the newspaper 'Sport'. The footballer that would want the ex seleccionador of Holland in case of not being able to close the incorporation of Eric would be Linsandro Martínez, defender of the Ajax of alone 22 years.

The Argentinian carries in the group 'ajacied' from the summer of 2019 and Koeman carries him following since. The Barcelona trainer considers that it is a player of present and future, and thinks that could be an interesting arrival for his Barça. The one of Gualeguay can play in the centre of the defence, that is his natural place, but also manages well in the left side and even in the centre of the field like pivote.

This polivalencia calls the attention of the míster barcelonista, that is needed of reinforcements. Besides, the Dutch values very positively his year and half of experience in Holland and in the Champions League, where has played enough. It seems that already there have been contacts between the surroundings of the Barcelona and the one of the Ajax, that would demand too money for the traspaso of a player that is important for Have Hag.

The Barça wants a conveyance with option to buy

The Catalans could not arrive to the money that ask the ones of Ámsterdam and would offer a conveyance with option to buy of face to the summer. Of this form, the next president would not be tied to the operation and would depend on the tastes of the trainer and of the technical office. In the team 'ajacied' is not so indisputable like the past course, by what perhaps would be had to negotiate this loan thinking in that revalorice even more.
