Calendar of FC Barcelona

The month of May brought achieve an important worry for the FC Barcelona and was the possible renewal of Ilkay Gündogan with the Manchester City after having reached a verbal agreement with the player so that it dressed of Barcelona from the next 1 July. However, the German seems to have left clear his intentions to go out because the English team already has begun to move index card in the market.

The ones of Pep Guardiola have initiated conversations this Wednesday with Mateo Kovacic, current footballer of Chelsea and with past in the Real Madrid and Inter of Milan. The mediocampista Croatian is one of the elected by the team londinense to leave the entity this summer, one in which they will need to sell all what can to be able to square accounts after some 600 million worn euros in the last two markets.

An operation that clears a lot of things

With 29 recently fulfilled years, Kovacic seems to be a player of the like of the celestial technical body and fits with a very similar profile to the of Gündogan, although with a bit less than goal. With Chelsea already allowing that the player and the City arrive to an agreement, everything seems directed so that the player change of airs and leave the open door so that the German finish going out free the next 30 June.

Although from the lathe of Gündo have insisted many times that his decision will not arrive until after the final of the Champions League, the next 10 June, such seems that Guardiola already gives by stray to the midfield player. A decision of purchase of a footballer of the same Premier League arrives only when the need is very high and replace to your captain can be precisely that tighten.

Some days more than wait

In the Camp Nou have prioritised the folder of Leo Messi in these next days, but clearly follow expecting by the "himself" definite of Gündogan to sign his agreement of three seasons, once that LaLiga allow it, clear is. The patronal follows without giving the 'ok' the plan of feasibility presented by the Barça, although only they subtract few details so that all remain finished of favourable way for the culés.
