Attached to the idea of attracting a competitor to Jordi Alba as left-back, FC Barcelona have placed their pawns on Ajax Amsterdam player Nicolas Tagliafico (29 years old, 15 appearances and 2 goals in all competitions this season ). Only, the Blaugrana favor a loan with an option to buy, when the Lancers claim a dry transfer for their Argentinian international. The case therefore seems to be blocked (see yesterday’s news at 3:12 p.m.), but the abutment formation does not let go.
And journalist Gerard Romero tells us that the famous agent Jorge Mendes, reputed to be close to Barcelona President Joan Laporta, has taken charge of this file. In order to seduce Ajax, Barça would maintain the idea of a loan and would now offer the Batavians to temporarily give them in exchange the young Alejandro Balde (18 years old, 6 appearances in all competitions this season), considered very promising but still too soft. An interesting option for the Dutch champion?
