Zapping Our Mondial CAN 2021: The strengths and weaknesses of Mali seen by Cédric Kanté for Onze Mondial
Barça continues to work on the overhaul of its workforce under the leadership of Xavi, who hopes to build a new collective with in particular a large place left to young talents. This is valid for the nuggets of La Masia, but also for other arrivals which could allow the Blaugrana club to strengthen.
In this sense, the daily Sport tells us this Tuesday that two Brazilian jewels, who today belong to Santos, would have a future all mapped out at Barça. The Catalan club would now have priority for Kaiky, a particularly promising central defender, and Angel, a young striker who could also explode at the highest level.
Remains of a dispute around Neymar
An advantage gained … thanks to the remains of the deal between Barça and Santos for Neymar, in 2013. Indeed, at the time of Neymar’s arrival, Barça had negotiated a priority for another striker, Gabigol. A priority that Santos did not respect in 2016 to transfer him to Inter Milan against 30 million. Since then, the dispute has remained and to avoid having compensation to pay, Santos would therefore have agreed to give priority to Barça for two other nuggets of the club …
to summarize
Thanks to an old dispute dating from the Neymar era, Barça will be able to benefit from a big advantage to secure the services of two nuggets. Especially a player who shows great promise defensively.
