The player will arrive tomorrow and the club will make his incorporation official in the next few hours
The operation will be closed in the economic terms previously established: between 5 and 8 million euros
Marcos Alonso will become a new FC Barcelona footballer in the next few hours. The agreement is closed with Chelsea and the left back will become the sixth addition to the very busy market, after those of Kessie, Christensen, Raphinha, Lewandowski and Koundé.
The man from Madrid will land in the Catalan capital throughout the day tomorrow and the Blaugrana club will announce his signing officially in the next few hours. Raúl Verdú and Fran Porras, agents from Ramadani’s office, have been in Barcelona meeting with Mateu Alemany in the offices of the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper to close the last fringes of the operation, which already has the green light.
Closed price
Despite some rumors that have come to light in recent hours indicating an increase in Chelsea’s financial claims to sell Alonso, the truth is that the operation will be closed under the previously established financial terms. Namely, a transfer cost that would be encrypted between 5 and 8 million euros.
After Barca’s interest in closing the defender’s deal intensified, Chelsea decided to remove him from the club. The man from Madrid has not entered any of the calls for the five official matches they have played to dateall of them from the Premier League.
The last of them, tonight, against Southampton at home. Marcos Alonso bet everything to be able to play at the Camp Nou, even saying ‘no’ to Atlético de Madrid when his signing for Barça was not yet completely closed.
From section to owner?
The left back at Barça has a strong swell. For the first time in the last decade, Jordi Alba does not have the undisputed title tag hanging. The one from L’Hospitalet accumulates two consecutive substitutions in the League -against Real Sociedad and Real Valladolid- and did not dress short against the pucelanos.
The great beneficiary has been Alejandro Balde, with a more than remarkable performance. Now Marcos Alonso will be added to a very populated lane. The big loser of all would end up being Jordi Alba, who would become the third option to occupy the band, while the young academy player would become a luxury substitute,
