The FC Barcelona will have the big task to achieve to the ideal relief of Sergio Busquets for the midfield. The captain has announced that, after fifteen years in the first team, went to put an end to his career in the Spotify Camp Nou to give him the welcome (definite?) To the new generation. It will sack when it finish the season 2022-2023 and will leave a big 'hollow' in the team of Xavi Hernández.

The goodbye of the of Badía is, of some way, unexpected for the blaugrana, especially because the Barcelona trainer had insisted in that it wanted that it remained a year more. In any case, begins a period of 'casting' for the culés, places are forced to fichar to a futbolists that can to play of pivote. It is a position in which it can situate Frenkie of Jong, but in his last presentations playing of '5' has not convinced.

Like this then , from the City Condal have begun his research to achieve to his new pivote and are varied the names on the table. It will be key to achieve a signing, but will depend only of the solutions that can find the directive of Joan Laporta for 'delete' his problems with the Fair Play financial. In the meantime, we review all the alternatives that have sounded to date:

İlkay Gündoğan (Manchester City): Option 'low cost'

It is the midfield player with more possibilities of recalar in the City Condal by his contractual situation. It will be free agent on 30 June and the last informations reveal that Xavi Hernández there would be him 'convinced' of recalar in the Camp Nou, although from England have informed that the Manchester City still trusts to renew him, especially because Pep Guardiola values it a lot. It can play so much of mediocentro as of interior and is a player with quality 'infinite'.

Sofyan Amrabat (Fiorentina): It generates consensus

A recent information of 'SPORT' desveló that the Moroccan midfield player is the one who more consensus generates in the direction, even more than İlkay Gündoğan, because it is more 'natural' for the position.

It remains him a year more than agreement with the Fiorentina, but presionará to go out this summer by a low price or directly free.

Martín Zubimendi (Real Sociedad): The impossible dream of Xavi

It is the big dream of the Barcelona to reinforce the medullary, but probably the most complicated option. 'Sportive world' informed the day of yesterday that the player of the Real Sociedad keeps like the favourite of Xavi Hernández, but would be an investment (of, at least, 60 million euros) that the club could not assume this summer. Zubimendi Neither has intention to go out of the Reale Sand: "The best that can do is to remain me here. Neither I have posed me go me. I am in my house and happy to keep growing here in the club", said recently.

Rúben Neves (Wolverhampton): The staff technical said that 'no'

Although it appears in the quinielas to reinforce the medullary azulrana and during the past week were a lot of the rumours on a possible barter with Ansu Fati and 30 million euros. However, it is a footballer that has not generated consensus in the staff technical, that does not see him like the ideal option to replace to Busquets. In spite of his regularity in England, is accustomed to play in a double pivote in which it accompanies him, almost always, a more defensive profile (Lemina).

Guido Rodríguez (Betis): Waiting for the call?

One of the last names that has appeared in the diary is the one of Guido Rodríguez. With agreement until the summer of 2024, would have braked the negotiations with the Real Betis for his renewal because intuye that the Barcelona group could call it this year. It is a profile that interests to Xavi Hernández, but will depend on if the verdiblancos decide to sell it by a price reduced.
