The future of Ramón Planes, who signed Pedri and Ronald Araújo

In the present season, the FC Barcelona has given a turn of nut to his staff giving gone out to veteran players like Luis Suárez, Arturo Vidal or Ivan Rakitic and making bets by young players, already was by means of signings or by means of quarry. Ramón Plans, technical secretary of the Barcelona club since it left Eric Abidal has starred several tarpaulins.

One of them is Pedri González, a footballer that at present is dazzling with hardly 18 years. The grancanario is being the big disclosure of the season and have sufficed him three months to win the confidence of Ronald Koeman and so that the fans of the FC Barcelona consider him his new idol. His colossal performances and his boundless society with Leo Messi turn him into one of the big values of the club culé.

The most curious of all this is that, on the contrary of players that arrived consecrated like Philippe Coutinho or Antoine Griezmann to astronomical prices (both cost more than 120 million euros), Pedri González arrived pertinent of the UD The Palms by only 5 'kilos'. A price irrisorio by a footballer called to lead to the FC Barcelona in the next decade.

But the mediapunta grancanario has not been the only bet of Ramón Plans whose results are being tremendos regarding the quality and the price. Ronald Araújo, Uruguayan defence of 21 years, also arrived of the hand of the current technical secretary pertinent of Boston River by an inferior quantity to 2 million euros. After two years in the filial, has turned into one of the indisputable for Ronald Koeman.

The next 24 January, will celebrate the elections to the presidency of the FC Barcelona and a new managerial board will take the control of the Barcelona club. Of course, the big favourites in the elections will carry of the hand to people of his confidence in all the areas of the club and, of course, the figure of the technical secretary will be one of the big catchwords to go out victorious.

In this stage, antoja very complicated the continuity of Ramón Plans at the head of the sportive direction and his future is entirely in the air. But independently of the plans that have each candidate, it is necessary to recognise him his merit for having starred bets so hit by so little money. It will be necessary to see if it follows, if it repositions him or if it goes , but the signings​ of Pedri and Ronald Araújo arrived by him.
