Marcos Alonso, left side of Chelsea, has been the favourite of the FC Barcelona to arrive to the club in this market of winter. As 'Sportive World', Ramon Plans, technical secretary of the Barça, worked in his possible arrival in January in case Junior Firpo finished leaving. The Madrilenian would have arrived yielded to the Camp Nou, by what would not have cost an alone euro further of his wage. But the blaugrana needed to sell to do gap to his wage and to the not to have it attained all has cancelled .

The problem is that the Hispanic-dominican has not gone out and to these heights no longer there is option that it go . The ex of the Betis will remain in the Barcelona until summer and the most likely is that then the club decide to sell him definitively. In this case, the blaugrana will have to fichar a substitute and can that the name of Marcos go back to go out to the palestra. It will be the next president of the group barcelonista the one who decide how proceed.

In the short term, there are few doubts that the Spanish would have been an important improvement for the staff regarding Junior. It does not be necessary to forget that Alonso has been indisputable in Stamford Bridge during several campaigns and that became one of the big left-handed sides of the Premier League. Unfortunately for him, the arrival of Frank Lampard to the bench 'blue' was the principle of the end for him, that this course has been convict to the ostracism.

The ex canterano of the Real Madrid is almost unpublished this season in London and only has played the three first meetings of Premier. In the last that contested, against the West Brom, Lampard substituted him to the rest and both had a strong discussion that left to the side out of the plans of the English. The ex player did not have he since and the Spanish has not gone back to play neither an alone minute.

It has played only three parties this season

Now, with the exit of Lampard, the situation of Marcos could change, although it is for seeing what decides Thomas Tuchel. In case that the Madrilenian do not recover an important place in the rotation, do with him will be much simpler for the Barcelona. It finishes agreement in 2023, but in Chelsea would value his exit this summer if it does not have minutes. By the moment, the ex of the PSG summoned him for his première, but did not give him neither a minute.

Regarding football, the carrilero of 30 years would be a big incorporation for this Barça. It is a clearly offensive side, sometimes even too much, has a big strike of balloon and his almost 1,90 do him be a safe by high. Besides, these centimetres do that it can play also of head office by the left, a polivalencia that liked a lot. Although it was veteran, has football for 2 or 3 years to big level, sufficient time to prepare to the that expects that it was titularísimo inside no so much, the canterano Alejandro Balde.
