Barça must pay 3 million euros to exercise its purchase option
The club is not in a position to make this economic effort
Luis Miguel Cruz was the author of the two goals that helped Barcelona Atlético set foot in the second round promotion phase to second division. There were two great goals that knocked out Real Madrid Castilla.
Sevilla youth squad player, Luismi Cruz exploded last year with the club’s subsidiary. Cruz scored five goals and distributed five assists in 29 games, which earned him the then coach of the Sevilla first team, Julen Lopetegui, gave him the opportunity to debut in LaLiga, the Copa del Rey and the Europa League. But Sevilla did not see a career in the first team and decided to loan him to Barcelona Atlétic. Barça has a purchase option which is 3 million euros, an amount that the Catalan entity will hardly pay considering its economic situation.
So that, it is more than likely that Luismi Cruz will change his scene at the end of next season and Barça will not have won anything in return. Just having had a player who, so far, has played 26 games and has scored 8 goals and given 8 assists.
