FC Barcelona remains attentive in case, in the event that Koundé ends up 'escaping', they have to activate their 'plan B' to reinforce their defense. For now, there are several alternatives that the sports management manages to 'please' Xavi Hernández
There is a new war between the FC Barcelona and Chelsea in the market of signings. As it already happened with Raphinha, the two clubs are in the dispute by a traspaso in this summer, this time with Jules Koundé (Seville). The player has all the intention to abandon Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán are two the alternatives that has on the table, the one of the culés and the 'blues', that for the moment go by in front. It foresees that in the next days resolve , definitively, his future.
In the Barça look forward to to complete his traspaso, put the born footballer in Paris has been a wish of Xavi Hernández from does time, but know that the operation can complicate more than the account and that from London trust that the traspaso will carry out. It is thus that the blaugrana want to have a 'plan B', in case that it do not arrive, to be able to reinforce the axis of the defence.
Milan Skriniar, William Saliba, Gvardiol, Iñigo Martínez and Roger Ibañez are the names that are on the table of the Barça, according to a recent information of the journalist Gerard Romero in 'Jijantes'. Besides, in the last hours 'Sportive World' has stood out that Pau Torres also would be an alternative, place has the 'OK' of the technical office. Of there that from FCBN ask us who, in your opinion, would be the central ideal to reinforce the Barcelona saga in case that it do not arrive Koundé:
It is worth it to remember that they would be incorporations complicated, especially in the case of Skriniar and Saliba. The first has a high available price, of 70 million euros apróximadamente, and has to the Paris Saint-Germain like main interested, whereas the player of the Marseilles aims to arrive to reinforce the saga of the Arsenal of Mikel Arteta. Pau Torres also would be quite costly (speaks of 60-70M), whereas Gvardiol, Ibañez and Martínez would be alternatives simpler to complete.
The operation Koundé, in a decisive point
Chelsea, to day of today, carries the forward by the signing of the French. Has an agreement with the Seville so that Koundé land in the Stamford Bridge in return of 55 million pounds (between fixed and variables), a figure that the blaugrana would not be in conditions to assume. It foresees that in the next hours the Barça present a formal offer by the footballer, but for the moment only there are conversations with the surroundings of the player.
In any case, in the Barça there is some negativismo. Andl Barcelona president Joan Laporta was questioned by a fan by the possible signing of the French player. It stood out that it will not complete , put already is fichado by Chelsea. "Koundé No... It is fichado by Chelsea", declared the maximum Barcelona mandator in a video of a Barcelona fan that has published the journalist Toni Juanmartí through his social networks.
