FC Barcelona has asked Atlético de Madrid about Renan Lodi and Mario Hermoso so that one of the two enters the exchange between Saúl Ñíguez and Antoine Griezmann. The Catalans want to strengthen their side and both like them for different reasons

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona is in favour of traspasar to Antoine Griezmann to the Athletic of Madrid in return of Saúl Ñíguez. The culés want to undo as it was of the wage of the French, that is of some 20 million net euros, and would accept to receive to the Spanish midfield player by him. The wage of the of Elche is of some 7 or 8 'kilos', by what the discount in the mass salarial of the staff would be enormous for the Barcelona.

The problem of this operation is that Saúl 'okay' 20 million euros less than 'Grizzy', that has a value of 60 'kilos' as 'Transfermarkt'. Thus, the Barça wants like compensation between 15 and 20 millions, in addition to the player, to close the deal. However, the colchoneros do not want to pay at all in cash and in the group barcelonista have thought in asking another footballer in this exchange.

Mario Beautiful and Renan Lodi have been the names that have gone out in the negotiation and are the players that more like to the Barcelona. The reason by which the Catalans have asked to these two footballers is not another that his worry by how remains the left side without Junior Firpo. The exit of the Hispanic-dominican leaves only to Jordi Alba in the place and forced to 'go up' to Alejandro Balde of the filial, something that does not convince to Ronald Koeman.

The trainer, the same that the own club, sees to the canterano too green and does not want to load him of responsibility. Thus, achieve another carrilero left-handed in this barter by Griezmann is an option that have to try as it was. In this case, any one of the two would arrive like acting, although it fits to say that there is remarkable differences in the profiles of both, that do not have at all that see.

Beautiful and Lodi do not have at all that see

In the case of Lodi, is a carrilero left of the Brazilian school, is very fast and has a big ease to go up the band. Ofensivamente Can be dangerous and contribute solutions, something that always is important in a team like the Barça. In defence, instead, has important lagoons and is not 100% reliable, as it showed with Gave María in the goal that gave him to Argentina the Glass America. Nevertheless, as acting can be a very interesting and useful option.

Beautiful, instead, defensivamente is solider due to the fact that his real position is the one of head office. The ex canterano of the Real Madrid has plant of defender and is here where better surrenders, but the past season played in several occasions of side giving an optimum performance. It is fast to the crossing, goes well of head, has a big exit of balloon and a good trip in long. Besides, his arrival would be a 'plus' like joker for the centre of the defence and the band.
