It remains the feeling that the FC Barcelona, from the exit of Dani Alves in 2016, only has fichado 'patches' to be able to replace to the Brazilian. Seven years after the -first- exit of the of Juazeiro, from the City Condal have kept in the research of a player that can be the '2' ideal and that go back to be determinant so much in defence as in attack. With Joao Cancel, that will arrive in quality of loan from the Manchester City, the expectations are maximum.
And it is that, after Alves denied to renew in 2016, the Barça has seen to parade to a big number of footballers to occupy the band. Without success any and that left to the air the lacks of the team. They have been a lot of the names, beginning by Douglas Pereira that landed to be the 'relief' immediate of Dani, by four milones of euros, but finished going of cession in cession until it left free.
Of Pereira to Dest, several failures of the Barça
The ex of the Sao Paulo was the first 'failure' of the Barça, but no the only. With Aleix Vidal, that could not debut until January of 2016 by the sanction of the FIFA to the culés, of some way repeated the history. In the moment that seemed to have more regularity, suffered a luxation in the right ankle that forced him to remain went by five months. Without penalties neither glories, finish returning to the Seville after 51 parties like Barcelona.
The history began to improve with the incorporation of Nelson Semedo, a player that woke up the iusión in the entity barcelonista and the one who has been, in reality, the right side post Alves that more has had regularity, although it was not solvent in his moment. The Barça paid 37,5 million euros by him and lived years quite regular, although being quite intermittent. It was one of the most signalled in the 'bathroom' of the Bayern in 2020 and finish leaving to the Wolverhampton.
Between so much, the Catalans signed to Sergiño Dest in the beginning of the stage of Ronald Koeman in the benches. They disbursed 21 'kilos' by a player of the that had very good references by his desparpajo, speed and solvency in the attack. It began to very good rhythm, but while more it chained injuries or physical problems, more dilated his good performances. It has gone 'dancing' between cessions, first to the AC Milan and, now, to the PSV.
The last names and the 'case Roberto'
In the middle of the way, also has been Emerson Royal, to the that the Barça there was fichado in 'cojunto' with the Real Betis, but after three official parties did his cases to leave to the Tottengham by 25 millions. Héctor Bellerín also did act of presence, very brief, but finish leaving to the Sporting CP after less than six months. Another name that seems 'fixed' is the one of Sergi Roberto, the one who from the stage of Luis Enrique has turned into the 'turns off fires' of the team in the right side, in spite of being natural midfield player. It has been a player that has 'resolved', but that never has comported like a definite solution for the band.
