The preseason of the Barcelona group begins with an incomprehensible setback to the aspirations of the coach culé
It has been a little more than a month of break that the players of the FC Barcelona. Xavi went on vacation with very clear guidelines to Mateu Alemany but they could not be met. Xavi did not care that there are no signings, but he did care about a key point.
We talk about discards. Xavi asked Mateu Alemany that the players who do not enter into the plans do not join the preseason. In other words, a solution would have been found for this Monday, July 10, the date on which they returned to work in Sant Joan Despí.
Mateu Alemany breaks his word with Xavi Hernández
There are players in doubt who Xavi prefers to give them the opportunity to claim in the preseason. We are talking about Nico González, Abde, Pablo Torre, Eric García or Ferrán or Ansu Fati themselves who are always marked. All of them are players who, if they level up, will stay in the squad.
But there is a particularly bloody case. Xavi did not want this situation to come to pass. We refer to a Clement Lenglet who must come out of all. In fact, there were two such cases. The first, a Samuel Umtiti who reached an agreement to break ties with FC Barcelona.
Lenglet returns to FC Barcelona, but does not count
Lenglet’s case is different. Because French does have a market. In fact, at Tottenham they are very happy with his performance and they want to sign him as a property. However, The English have planted an offer of 10 million fixed and 5 in variables, while FC Barcelona asks for at least 15 fixed.
The fact of not agreeing has forced Lenglet to stand up this Monday in Sant Joan Despí. He has passed the medical tests and has made himself available to Xavi who does not want to train with players who are not going to be there during the course. Mateu Alemany must solve this situation as soon as possible.
