Calendar of FC Barcelona

"If it had to stand out to one of the youngsters, would say Konrad de la Fuente, am very happy with him". These were the words of Ronald Koeman just after the victory against the Girona in the friendly second of the FC Barcelona. The American shined in the half hour that played in front of the gerundenses and confirmed the good feelings that left in front of the Nàstic of Tarragona.

The extreme is being one of the best news of this pre-season in the Barça and is leaving clear that it is a value of future to take into account. The one of Miami has so alone 19 years and the campaign that comes will have index card with the filial, but who know what could happen if the culés do not reinforce his forward. The Catalans wish the signing of a '9' and Koeman has asked to Memphis Depay, but everything indicates that the Dutch only will be able to arrive if it goes Luis Suárez.

Like this it spends them to him Konrad De la Fuente in the Barça B

The charrúa is tightening to the club to remain and has confirmed that only it will go in case that they pay him 15 million euros, the figure that has to earn by his last year of agreement in the Camp Nou. If the one of Jump went , can that the Barça tried the signing of the captain of the Olympique of Lyon, but in contrary case, can that the technician have to look to the quarry to find an alternative to his compatriot.

This secondary option could be Konrad, that is not a '9', but yes is a very fast extreme and with an extraordinary ease for encarar and desequilibrar from both bands. With Ansu Fati and Ousmane Dembélé in left, the North American could be an interesting alternative for the right-handed side. In principle, here it would have to play Leo Messi of start and Francisco Trincao would have to be the acting, but the '10' has showed that every time it is more comfortable in the mediapunta and here could have his opportunity the one of Florida.

Taking into account the competition that there is right now in the line of forwards and in the mediapunta of the Barcelona, goes to be complicated that the canterano do with a gap, but if it follows standing out like this can that Koeman want to reward him of some form. In addition to the culés mentioned, Antoine Griezmann and Pedri also are by in front of him, but anybody had Ansu the past campaign and the Hispanic-guinean finished winning the place.

The clause of Konrad is of alone 50 millions

The forward renewed his agreement this course happened until 2022 with an option of prorrogarlo two years more. Right now his clause is of alone 50 million euros, a dangerous figure if it exploded this season. Luckily, if it went up to the first team, this clause would go up to 100. As they are the things, anybody thinks that go to go up now, but his speed, desparpajo and desborde have dazzled to the of Zaandam and could happen of everything.
