Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona has like one of his priorities for the next market the signing of a defensive pivote. Although Xavi Hernández has found in Andreas Christensen a solution of emergency, the club knows that, of face to the 2024/25, needs to have a mediocentro natural. And one of the options is a footballer that already is strengthened in the Premier League: Amadou Onana.

The Belgian is being vital so that the Everton keep in the zone of the permanence in the maximum category of the English football, after what went his sanction does some months that sent him to the last place of the table for breaking the 'fair play' financial. The club of Goodison Park keeps right now to four points of the permanence, with a party less, and largely is due to an Onana that as it aims the journalist Matteo Moretto, is the big priority of the sportive direction of the Barça to the day of today.

The profile of Onana fits very well in the 'new' Barça

With 3 goals and 1 assistance in 29 apparitions with the 'toffies', his current value is of 50 million euros, a point that according to the information represents a big obstacle for the interests of the Barça. In fact, the club understands that the Everton will not leave him go by less than 60 'kilos', considering that Amadou has agreement until 2027, but the culés are had to negotiate with the 40 millions like one enciphers limit, and especially if they can include players in the operation.

Further to understand that the most important subject of the Catalan club is definitely the trainer that will arrive the next 1 July, Joan Laporta knows that achieve a new pivote has to be a priority, and there Onana is a very valued footballer for this role in the centre of the field. His physical profile, with 1,95 metres of height could be the ideal to accompany to players as Of Jong, Pedri or Gavi.

The summer, an important point to consider

Besides, it is a player of alone 22 years of age and that after going through Hoffenheim, Hamburg, Lille and now Everton, seems smart to give the definite jump in his career, having also in account that surely will be with Belgium in the Eurocopa of the next summer, another point that could help a lot to the Barça to observe his exert in the highest level. His aerial game, so much in attack as in defence, is another important point by which surely Deco has him like his favourite option for the pivote, to the margin of his high value of market.
