Barça studies pros and cons of signing Kouassi or Upamecano

The FC Barcelona has reduced his list of signings for the summer 2020, and his priority is to tie two forwards and a central. The budget is subject at the end of the crisis of the coronavirus and to the possible sales, and if the circumstances improve, will open the door to more incorporations. After choosing to Neymar and Lautaro Martínez for the offensive plot, the Catalans have to decide who is the ideal candidate for apuntalar the saga.

A year more, in the Camp Nou look for head offices, to complete a payroll with several incógnitas. Clément Lenglet and Gerard Hammered surface like certainties, although the canterano needs an heir. Jean-Clair Todibo and Ronald Araújo will be considered for this place, but so much to give a break to the headlines as to cover the course of Samuel Umtiti marked like transferible would do fault some effective more.

The sportive managers have put hands to the work, and in the dance of names now stand out other two French. In the last months have sounded several favourites and have gone moving away and approaching by several reasons, but Éric Abidal and his team of work have not left to move . In these moments, the Barcelona study the pros and the contras to bet by Tanguy Kouassi or Dayot Upamecano.

The pros and the contras of Kouassi and Upamecano

Tanguy Kouassi

The first glimpse to Kouassi suffices to consider him like a very interesting alternative. To his 17 years, already has contested some parties to the orders of Thomas Tuchel, that in front of a plague of drops has given him minutes with the first team of the PSG. Without having reached at least the majority of age, impress his naturalidad and know be, that allow to take out party to a physicist imponente (1,87 metres) and a remarkable physical capacity and tactical skill, that does him shine especially in the intimidation labeling of his rivals. And the best is that all this could arrive to cost zero, since it has not signed a professional agreement and his current links expires in 2020 -was when it was that it finish the course-. Neither it is necessary obviar that, in case of need could act like pivote.

But obviously, no everything are advantages in this case, since there are several doubts that surround to the Parisian. His short route in the football of elite turns him into a melon for opening, with a lot of margin of improvement but with the need to put him a constant examination in LaLiga. It does not do a lot, Todibo confronted to a similar situation, and in spite of his good ways, had to leave yielded to the Schalke to have opportunities and recover the regularity that threw in fault. It is for seeing if it adapts to a championship that demands enough more than Tie it 1, and if it is able of pulir an essential quality like the exit of balloon, in which the experts see him potential but in which it still does not shine.

Dayot Upamecano

Upamecano Carries several years in the diary of the Barça, and this, of course, is not by chance. To his 21 years has consolidated in one of the best groups of the Bundesliga, that has happened to be a disclosure to turn into alternative in the national competitions and the Champions League. It is an authentic leader in the retaguardia and in the selection have him in the sight, by several conditions that remember to the best version of Umtiti. It is powerful, specialist in the aerial game, fast and with skill to play the balloon, what has kept him like fixed in the plans of Julian Nagelsmann. Besides, it finish agreement on 30 June 2021 and has manifested his decision to give another step forward in his career. Has quality and experience to the highest level and a fixed price.

As it was to expect, the one of Évreux also generates some doubt to the managers culés, beginning by a just but high cost. The 60 million euros that marks his clause of rescission are affordable and asumibles, but important in a summer in which it is necessary to play it with Neymar and Lautaro. Besides, it is necessary to check how reacts to the requirement of a big, and the competition is not lower because Bayern of Munich, Arsenal and Manchester City, among others, are to the threaten. This could elevate a cost that could equalise the income that leave the sale of 'Samu'.
