The name of Rodrigo Moreno, forward of Valencia, sounds every time with more strength to land to the Camp Nou like relief of Luis Suárez, that will not be able to play until the next month of April -as minimum- after the surgical intervention of the meniscus of his knee. The one of the forward 'che' is not a simple operation, but the sportive direction considers it accessible.
The past summer, Rodrigo was very near to sign by the Athletic of Madrid, but finally the traspaso did not finish concretising. Thus, the ariete would see this month of January an opportunity inigualable to give a jump to sportive level. To his 28 years, is in the plenitud of his career and would consider prepared to face the challenge to play in the Camp Nou.
Nevertheless, it treats of a very complex operation in which Valencia does not go to 'give' to his footballer. In fact, the group of the capital of the Turia has priced to the footballer in a figure between the 50 and the 60 million euros to start with to negotiate and in the FC Barcelona there is not sufficient economic muscle in these moments coo to cover the operation. Thus, have to study alternative formulas.
Several sectors of the press asguran that the FC Barcelona would have proposed to Valencia a conveyance with option to buy to final of season by an upper price to the that would demand the entity of Mestalla by an immediate signing. On the other hand, from the Camp Nou expects that the good relations of Jorge Mendes, Portuguese representative, with Peter Lim, owner of the entity valencianista, help to unblock the operation.
On the other hand, it is necessary to take into account the sportive plane: Valencia will not leave to go out to Rodrigo if before no concrete the return of Paco Alcácer, that wants to abandon the Borussia Dortmund to return to LaLiga. In case that the ex Barcelona returned, the valencianistas yes would pose open the door to the traspaso of Rodrigo, although neither like this would be an easy operation neither economic.
It is worthwhile to litigate by Rodrigo?
From it does a lot of months, the FC Barcelona has in his plans tie in summer to a young forward and contrasted as it could be Lautaro Rodríguez (22 years). The two names that sound with more strength this month of January are Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (30 years) and the own Rodrigo (28 years), two players that move away a lot of the profile of young star that the culés looked for. Neither the gabonés neither the Hispanic-Brazilian would go down of the 60 million euros, a very high price for players of his age. They are not few the barcelonistas that put in doubt the election of the sportive direction, that once again seems to sin of excessive improvisation.
