Emergencies They have Real Madrid, who will play against Sevilla without a half defense - Carvajal, Ramos and Casemiro are penalized and Varane injured - and FC Barcelona has them.
The two giants seek strengthened in the market of winter, while planning to turn the signings for next summer. And there will be bombs.
Ernesto Valverde has sent a very clear premise to both the sports management and the technical secretary of Barça, Robert Fernandez: " I only want starters ."
Nothing to sign wardrobe background to assume the substitution and then do not help. No. Valverde wants players who compete every day for a position in the eleven.
And, specifically, the Barça coach wants to strengthen three positions. Two of them count on the total endorsement of Leo Messi, the star of the team.
The main request is Philippe Coutinho, who should land at the Camp Nou this January. The Liverpool qualified for the next phase of the Champions, you do not want to miss.
The Brazilian player also scored a hat-trick in his last European game. What makes an operation even more expensive, at least, at 120 million euros.
Beyond the signing of Coutinho, it is urgent to renew the Barca defense. Javier Mascherano has said by active and passive that he wants to go. And I could leave in January.
If Mascherano leaves the team in the winter market, it is a prerequisite to sign a release of guarantees on those dates. Beyond Yerri Mina.
The Colombian central will be Barca, but is called to be the fourth central. The idea is to incorporate it next summer, to the detriment of Thomas Vermaelen,which they intend to sell.
Messi does not want Griezmann
However, a substitute for guarantees for Masche is needed. Someone who can compete the starting place to Piqué and Umtiti.
Valverde has two players in mind: Aymeric Laporteand Iñigo Martínez. While Robert follows closely the young Dutchman Matthijs de Ligt.
Messi, unable to convince Mascherano to prolong his stay in Barcelona, is in favor of these two signings. He sees them totally necessary.
Less likes, however, the third request of Valverde : another forward top. The chosen one is Antoine Griezmann, who could be Barça in exchange for 100 million euros in summer.
However, the Argentine star does not see with good eyes this signing because with Coutinho and Dembelé in the team, he believes that the biggest victim can be his great friend: Luis Suárez.
