The FC Barcelona will only bet for the signing of Lautaro Martínez, this summer, as long as it produce an unexpected exit of Luis Suárez course to the MLS

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Although it is 11 years old more than Lautaro Martínez, Luis Suárez has starred better numbers this season 2019-20 that the leading youngster Argentinian of the Inter of Milan, and the FC Barcelona so only has foreseen to promote the arrival of the of White Bay this same summer if the charrúa does the cases, something unlikely in spite of having offers of the MLS of United States.

Although it is true that Luis Suárez happened several months in the infirmary by fault of the injuries this course, even so it has kept some good statistics that surpass, in goals and assistances, the ones of Lautaro Martínez that has gone of more to less along the season. The '9' of the Barça has annotated a total of 19 goals (16 in League and 3 in Champions) this course, offering besides 12 assistances to his mates.

With 11 parties contested more than the Uruguayan, Lautaro Martínez so only has been able to mark the same goals (19), delivering the half of assistances (6) that the forward of the FC Barcelona. In this sense, the Barça will follow trusting Luis Suárez like minimum a campaign more, because the player has won it to him and can offer still a big performance to his 33 years.

The signing multimillionaire of Lautaro Martínez, if Luis Suárez does not do the cases this summer, would arrive in the market estival of 2021, when the Uruguayan already have 34 years and pass to exert a secondary role in the rows of the Barça, or bet for leaving to a lower league as it could be the American, the Uruguayan or the one of some another country.

A thing is clear: if Lautaro Martínez lands in the FC Barcelona, will do it to be decisive and an indisputable headline. Therefore, it will not be until 2021 when Luis Suárez step at the side (if it finish sucediendo). Josep Maria Bartomeu wants to atinar this time with his signing multimillionaire, after have not had the success that expected, at least for now, with Coutinho, Dembélé and Griezmann.

Renew or die

The FC Barcelona shows little by little to a delicate situation, the obligation to update his 'nine' after six years in which Luis Suárez so only has given joys with his goals and assistances. But the cycles finish , of course, and is necessary to renew with new sap of periodic form. When Lautaro Martínez dress the Barcelona T-shirt, was in this 2020 or in 2021, will have a difficult ballot if it wants to equalise the gestas of Suárez. It will not be at all easy... And the comparisons are odiosas.
