Martín Zubimendi is, beside Joshua Kimmich, one of the candidates to reinforce the centre of the field of the FC Barcelona during the next season. The intention of the sportive direction is to achieve to a player that can offer consistency to the room of machines and 'elevate' the level of the current staff after the fiasco that supposed the incorporation of Oriol Romeu that has not fulfilled the expectations that had with him.
It is the candidate 'favourite' of Xavi Hernández, that finds him like the ideal relief of Sergio Busquets for the mediocentro. The Barça pretends to try his signing this summer, although two weeks ago it had communicated his intention to be still in the Real Sociedad: "I Am happy in the Real Sociedad, is like my house", said to 'Koora', adding that "I can not say that I will play all my career in the Real because perhaps the club do not want to that it continue in the future. And I do not concern me by these rumours".
The 'case Zubimendi' in the Barça
With Zubimendi there are two problems: His clause of rescission, that rises to the 60 million euros (a figure that desconoce if the Barça will be able to assume) and the competition that will exist in the market in case that, finalmemte, the midfield player decide to do his cases to abandon San Sebastián. It is one of the pivote with greater projection in the Spanish football and will not be a lower factor in the window of transfers.
According to an information of Sportive World there are two teams mainly that will go in in the fight by the signing of Zubimendi: Arsenal and Juventus. They are two teams that will not have problems to disburse the 60 million his clause of exit and that they could be an authentic quebradero of head for the Barça if they decide 'launch' to by him.
The Barça is still in 'will see' with the signings
In any case, the possibility that the Barcelona bet by Zubimendi will depend of the Fair Play financial. It is not a secret for anybody that the sportive direction bet by a mediocentro defensive, but will depend on that the club do the works in the dispatches to achieve sanear his accounts and go in in the parameters of the financial control of LaLiga. Of here to there it remains a good time... And it will be necessary to see if the culés have opportunities.
