THIS IS CONFIRMED BY THE SPORTS DIRECTOR OF THE ‘GIRONÍ’ CLUB
The FC Barcelona, before beginning the season 2023-24, had full certainty that it needed to reinforce with a pivote of guarantees because of the exit of the historical Sergio Busquets to the Inter Miami. From the beginning, this research presented like something complicated, since they had to find to a player that could contribute similar provision to the ones of ‘Busi’, which resulted extremely difficult. Besides, the club already had clear that did not have of the necessary economic muscle to incorporate to a footballer ‘top’ that it could strengthen this position, as Joshua Kimmich (Bayern Munich) and Martín Zubimendi (Real Sociedad), two highly valued names by Xavi Hernández, but whose cost became inasumible for the team.
Instead, the Barça opted by fichar to Oriol Romeu, from the Girona, an investment that fit so much in financial terms, since only it cost 3,4 M€, as in terms of performance in the field, since it was one of the key pieces in the combined gerundense and his past in the Barcelona institution gave him a deep knowledge of all the concepts and the philosophy of game culé, which did that the picture of the City Condal trusted he.
Romeu Did not finish being the pivote that expected the FC Barcelona
However, his performance was irregular in the FC Barcelona. After a beginning of season in which it showed like a defensive and correct guarantee in the circulation of the balloon, his performance was moving away increasingly of the expectations in every aspect of the game. So much in defensive works, where left to be a mediocampista aguerrido, as in the creation of game, where showed a particular fault of precision in the passes to offensive territory.
This situation carried to that the one of Ulldecona happened to have a paper practically testimonial in the Barça, where at present accumulates 32 commitments contested (1.281 minutes). This, of course, has carried to the club to explore other alternatives, as give him the position of pivote to Andreas Christensen. Besides, the Catalan picture has looks it put in the next market of summer to look for a pivote of hierarchy that can reinforce definitively this position and, if it arrives an offer the sufficiently convincente, could be had to leave go to Romeu.
It will go back Oriol to enfundarse the elastic of the Girona?
In this sense, if the FC Barcelona was had to leave to leave to the ’18’, seems that already there is another group interested in his services in LaLiga, and is not another that the Girona, cast in which Oriol shined previously and that apparently would see with good eyes his return. Recently, Quique Prison, sportive director of the combined gerundense, confirmed this in the program ‘Tot Filmed’ of ‘Televisió of Girona’.
“I have said many times that it was a player very determinant for the club and for the vestidor by the values that he has. It has had a year complicated by some injury and all has to study, but is a player that could go back to have in staff because it can give us a lot“, aseveró Prison, opening the door to a possible return of the mediocentro to Montilivi. It is worthwhile to remember that rumoreó in the past market of winter that this could suceder, and now this option earns more strength, especially if they take into account the contacts that can have by players like Aleix García, Eric García and Pablo Tower.
