In the absence of official confirmation, Marcelo Brozovic will join the ranks of Al-Nassr for the next three seasons after his transfer to FC Barcelona was 'frustrated' this summer

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Until it does some days, Marcelo Borozovic was the first candidate for recalar in the FC Barcelona and replace to Sergio Busquets in the position of the pivote. It was a player that generated consensus so much in the sportive direction as in the staff technical, comandado by Xavi Hernández, but the culés arrived too late to the career (or did not arrive?) And the Croatian midfield player has put course to Saudi Arabia, to fault of confirmation.

It exists a total agreement so that the Inter yield the rights of Brozovic to the To the-Nassar at a rate of 17-18 million euros. It will install in the Half Orient by the next three seasons and will sack of the option to play for the Barça, that was his 'plan To' for this summer, according to the information of the journalist Giacomo Iacobellis this Sunday. His aim was relacar in the City Condal.

It repeats the history of Leo Messi

As it already happened it does less than a month with Lionel Messi, the Barça has sacked of a futurible signing by not being able to offer guarantees to do with his services and, later, inscribe it in LaLiga. With the Argentinian, after a long campaign to concretise his return after two years in the Paris Saint-Germain, the club was not able to put him an offer on the table. It finish fichando by the Inter of Miami, although his wish was to have a last dance with the blaugrana.

Saving the distances, the case of Brozovic is similar. According to the before quoted source, the big wish of the player was to play in the Barça but did not have security that they could complete his traspaso. It is worth it to remember that, previously, it had informed that the culés were not in the capacity to pay the 23 million euros that asked the Inter of Milan by his traspaso. There was not offer, neither contacts. The Italians finished reducing the price and the To the-Nassr accepted to carry it.

In the meantime, the Barça is still in his 'operation pivote'

With the option of Brozovic descartada definitively, the Barça continues in the bússqueda of the player that will replace to Sergio Busquets in the next season and Xavi Hernández already has warned that it wants to that it arrive before it begin the pre-season, on 10 July. The only name on the table is the one of Oriol Romeu, but does not finish to generate consensus in the sportive direction although the egarense gave green light to his incorporation.
