No all the players of the Athletic of Madrid that have arrived to the FC Barcelona have achieved to stand out. If it concretises the barter between blaugrana and 'colchoneros', that would include to Antoine Griezmann and Saúl Ñíguez, the midfield player would be assuming a big challenge, to show that yes it can fulfil the expectations that have with his traspaso, something that will not be very simple.
For the Barça is a new attempt that a pertinent player of the Atleti triumph in the Camp Nou, something that has not seen from the decade of the ninety. The most recent cases, doing upsetting in Antoine Griezmann (arrived in 2019) and Burn Turan (fichado in 2015), left a lot that wish for the Barcelona group.
In the case of the 'Principito', always has recognised that it is a player with a lot of talent and potential, but never has finished to be comfortable in the Barça and has left the feeling that it could have done more. First it was the adaptation, afterwards the position... They have been a lot of the factors that have had weight in his way by the Barcelona group that carry to the same conclusion: it has not fulfilled with the expectations and has not justified the 120 millions that the Barça paid by him in 2019.
It is true that in this 2021, Griezmann stepped advance and added importance in the forward, forming a pair with Leo Messi that it allowed him improve his registers goleadores, but has not been sufficient. In total, has added an only title in two years (the Glass of the King 2020-21), registering 35 goals and 17 assistances to his mates. This yes, has had several decisive goals (in the Glass, especially).
In the case of Burn Turan, is a movement of the that the Barcelona group probably arrepiente. The culés it ficharon in 2015 by 41 million euros, but had to expect until January of 2016 to debut with the team to consequence of the sanction FIFA that weighed on the Barça. The international by Turkey played 55 official parties, with 15 goals. His agreement with the Catalans lived it of cession in cession, because it cost him integrate. It showed, definitely, a very different version to which had in Vicente Calderón.
'Colchoneros' That yes triumphed in the Barça
Julio Alberto Moreno and Marcos Alonso are the most recent cases of pertinent players of the Atleti that yes achieved to shine in the Barcelona group. They arrived both in the year 1982 and the side converted very fast in an idol for the fanatical barcelonistas. It signed a list of winners of luxury, with: Two Leagues, three Glasses, two Glasses of the League and a Supercopa of Spain.
The extreme, by his part, was not so much time in the Barcelona rows (of the 82 to the 87) but his performance was optimum and left very satisfied to the Barcelona. It was part of one of the forwards of gold of the Barça, beside 'Wolf' Carrasco, Diego Armando Maradona and Quini, before returning to the Athletic of Madrid in 1987.
