The signing of a defensive pivot could lead to the first 'soap opera' between the FC Barcelona board and Hansi Flick. Although the German coach understands the complex culé financial situation, he hopes to be able to count on Joshua Kimmich this summer

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Hansi Flick Seems to have decided by Joshua Kimmich like the mediocentro ideal to reinforce the place of pivote in the FC Barcelona. Further of the complicated that results the operation for the club, the German trainer understands that the one of Rottweil is the ideal footballer for the place, in addition to treating of a player that also can play without problems like right side.

Waiting for what suceda with Joao Cancel, the Barça neither has clear what do with a position in which Jules Koundé surrenders every time better with France, although in the club follows showing altibajos, especially in front of rivals 'top'. For the Barça, the problems for fichar to the '6' of the Bayern Munich go through his high index card, since the surroundings of the mediocentro already would have filtered to the Barcelona directive the minimum wage that would accept to play in Spain.

As 'SPORT', the emolumentos of the international germano rondarían the 20 million gross euros by season, a quantity that, at present, only perceive Robert Lewandowski, Frenkie of Jong and Ílkay Gündogan. The 20 'kilos' would add to the roughly €30m that would cost to ensure his exit of the Bavarian team, with which finish agreement in 2025 and, in front of his refusal to renew, already would have green light to leave by this figure.

Mikel Merino, the alternative to Kimmich better valued by the directive

In this sense, the managerial culé seems to bend by Mikel Merino. The Basque is in a very similar situation to the one of Joshua: it subtracts him a season of agreement with the Real Sociedad and his sale would close by the order of the €30m. By age and characteristic, the one of Pamplona neither is far from what can offer the '6' Bavarian, in addition to treating of a player that also has left very good feelings in his go through the Selection.

Regarding European shooting, Kimmich takes out a remarkable advantage, but in the financial section the player 'txuri urdin' fits much better in the Barcelona actuality. Mikel could sign by the order of the 5 'kilos' gross by season, but Hansi Flick will insist to the end by fichar to a footballer to the one who, in spite of having some 'brush' during his stage like seleccionador German, keeps total confidence on his capacities to lead the centre of the field of the new Barça.
