The FC Barcelona blocked the signing of the Brazilian when it was player of the Palmeiras. Had a clause of rescission of 32 million euros and only had 19 years
The current forward of the Manchester City, Gabriel Jesus, plays in the English team from the season 2016-2017. The 'sky blues' paid his clause of rescission; they disbursed to the Palmeiras, his club of origin, 32 million euros. The Brazilian forward, in that moment, was in the lists of all the big teams, including to the Barça.
The Barcelona team managed the agreement of the forward, but finally threw backwards. The figure that it was necessary to pay for the traspaso of the player was very high, in that then, for a promise of 19 years. Paradoxically, yesterday it presented Francisco Trincao, has the same age that Gabriel Jesus in 2016 and cost one million less.
André Cury was, then, the manager of the signings of the Barça in the Latin American countries. It warned to the club of the excelsa quality of the player and recommended his signing in spite of his clause since it ensured that had projection. It communicated with the club to say that it was a perla that would fly this same summer. It hit.
The club culé decided not going in in a conflict with the rest of the teams of Europe by Gabriel Jesus. It left it very clear the sportive director of the Barça, then, Raül Sanllehí, and like this communicated it to him to the Brazilian club.
The true is that the club came to do a put in an alike operation, and the experience had not been very good. We are speaking of the case Gerson. Another Brazilian player that contested several teams. Finally, when it seemed that the Barça went it to incorporate, finished arriving to the Rome. As with Malcom, but the other way around. Turns of the life.
The split of the market futbolístico
It seems lie as it has changed the world of the football. Some say that it was the entrance of the euro, others, the sale of Neymar, etc. The case is the following: the Barça no fichó in his moment to a player like Gabriel Jesus by 32 millions when now fichar to Reinier by 30 is a brilliant operation. We will have to see what costs them now if finally they want that it play in the Barça.
