It finish to begin the season and the FC Barcelona goes back to have problems in the axis of the defence, that has remained in picture by another inopportune plague of injuries. Gerard Hammered and Clément Lenglet will be the only central available for Ernesto Valverde in the weeks to come, since in the last days has seen as they fell first Samuel Umtiti and afterwards Thomas Vermaelen.

The debate has opened in the City Condal on if it touches fichar in winter, but for the moment will be necessary to look for urgent solutions. The technicians have to decide if in the announcements go in other specialists in the place, or if the only alternatives in case of more problems will be to reposition as 'patch' temporary to Sergio Busquets or play it with a side reconverted.

A possibility that begins to sound with strength is the one to rise to a reinforcement of the filial, and there are three footballers that have options. The Txingurri already had to Jorge Cuenca, Óscar Mingueza and Chumi to his orders during the pre-season, and now could them give an opportunity. In spite of everything, it will be necessary to go with special care to the hour to give the step, because it consigns it is not taking risks with the promises.

From it does a time, so much the extremeño like Francisco Javier García Pepper, technician of the Barça B, have warned that no presionarán to the youngsters not to burn them, and with Seville, Inter of Milan and Real Madrid in the horizon, seems complicated that they go to have minutes. Another thing is that they begin to appear in the lists of summoned, of face to avoid grave setbacks if there are more mishaps in shape of injuries or sanctions.

The three have very assimilated the requirements that demand in the City Condal, and base his performances in the placing, the pass and the simple game, without complications. In case that it was necessary to resort to one of them, Cuenca splits like favourite, since it is the one who more convinces to the preparadores and has experience in Second Division with the Alcorcón.

Of Ligt will not arrive to the Barça in winter

What seems clear is that if there is signing of emergency in January, that will not be Matthijs of Ligt, because the Ajax has repeated his refusal to leave him escape to half season. In statements to an Italian publication, Marc Overmars, his sportive director, has reiterated that it will not have gone out in winter, although it has left the open door to a traspaso in summer.
