From the Camp Nou they have several positions to reinforce in the summer and therefore they want to stay open to as many options as they can, although some begin to lose more and more strength.

In the FC Barcelona exist still some open debates regarding the planning of the next market of signings and one of them is if the club has to bet by the contracting, or no, of a right side. Jules Koundé already has left clear that is not comfortable with the idea to have to contest another season like titling in this zone, by what in the dispatches insist with two names for the summer: Juan Foyth and Joao Cancel.

The second player, that will fulfil 29 years this same week, finds now by in front of the Argentinian and of other options like Thomas Meunier (Borussia Dortmund) or Noussair Mazraoui (Bayern). In the Barça consider more feasible the arrival of the international Portuguese by the possibility to negotiate a cession with the Manchester City, the one who will recover to the side after his go through six months in Munich.

Moment to negotiate with a bit more than conviction

However, in the Camp Nou wanted to recess the price that the Villarreal asks by Foyth (42 millions), although the possibility that Guardiola do not have Cancel does that it was a better alternative of market, at least for now. This leaves to the defender champion of the world a bit more far of the City Condal, where Xavi already has left clear that it is his main option.

The big problem that has the Catalan team by Foyth is the no available need of the yellow team, in the Camp Nou expect to recess the price that the Villarreal asks by Foyth (42 millions), is true that the possibility that Guardiola do not have Cancel does that it was a better alternative of market.. To this adds it to him the idea of not selling to the footballer inside LaLiga, a philosophy that in The Ceramics are used to to be still in the last years.

A real possibility but no thus simple

Of the another side, in Germany do not want to exert the 70 million euros of the option of purchase that possess on Cancel, although it is not descartado that can negotiate a new operation, by what the Barça thinks that could go in in the bidding. The Barcelona team could confront in the competition with the Real Madrid and the Arsenal, two clubs interested in reinforcing both sides with the Portuguese.
