It arrives the market of incorporations veraniego and with this the FC Barcelona already has to begin to take decisions regarding the additions and sale of players, especially in the section of drops, where the club has to consider which players 'podará' in a zone of the terrain of game that is on populated with until seven players: the defensive line. In front of this, the summer probably will present quite moved for the combined Barcelona.
In this sense, two footballers seem to be allocated to be object of possible sales: Andreas Christensen and Jules Koundé. Both defenders have showed that they can contribute a good sportive level and be extremely polyvalent, but still have a high value in the market (40 M€ the Danish and 45 M€ the French) and several combined interested that they could make big outlays by them. Therefore, it is not surprising that can be object of several speculations on his future in the institution culé.
In this point, as it commented in 'SPORT', although the FC Barcelona has both players for the next season, is not entirely closed to sell to these two pieces. This yes, the economic proposal has to be the sufficiently attractive as so that the Barcelonan cast consider to leave go to two of his main active. It is necessary to take into account that so much the '15' as the '23' were of vital importance in the diagram of the combined Catalan in this season 2023/24.
Jules Koundé, a valuable alternative to reinforce the right side
The Parisian defender showed to have the sufficient determination for, in spite of being a natural central defender, exert like right side during almost all the campaign, accumulating 50 commitments contested and 4.279 minutes of game. Besides, it went a defensive guarantee by this side and improved gradually in his offensive provision, that perhaps are his weak point.
Of face to the course 2024/25, without the certainty that the Barcelonan square can purchase to a natural right side or renew the cession of Joãor Cancel, Koundé could be an active quite useful for the band or even go back to the axis of the defence, especially considering the uncertainty that has surrounded recently the figure of Ronald Araújo and the apparent doubts on his renewal with the picture of the City Condal.
Andreas Christensen, another option valorable to reinforce the zone of mediocentros
Regarding the case of the native of Lillerød, is quite similar, since it began the season with some sporadic performances like central defender, but this saw hindered first by the irruption of Iñigo Martínez and afterwards by the one of Pau Cubarsí. Nevertheless, when Xavi Hernández relocated it in the position of defensive pivote, began to have a greater leadership in the staff, to the point to turn into one of the indispensable to the term of the course, contributing defensive solidity in the base of the medullary zone.
However, what could play against of Andreas Christensen is the fact that, with the change of diagram of the trainer Hansi Flick of a 4-3-3 to a 4-2-3-1 with mediocentros more dynamic and no purely defensive, his paper could change. Likewise, his propensity to the injuries also could turn it into candidate for an exit in this market estival.
