Just a few days overtook the preferences of the technical secretariat at the time to cover a potential threat in the midfield.
Pep Txiki and probing take time evaluating different alternatives and their possible adaptation to the Barca game system and philosophy that prevails in the locker room to pass. Nobody wants to go to market in a hurry and with the need to plug a niche product Touré progress or any other footballer. To avoid expensive the product or be subjected to 'blackmail' Club seller, the technical secretariat has opened the first contacts to probe the actual price and the willingness to enter into formal negotiations.
This is the case of the Girondins and Diarra. According to the newspapers Le Parisien confirmed and L'Equipe, Barca's emissaries have been sent to club Bordeaux to probe the real situation of the French midfielder.
The veteran Frenchman would match the profile required by Guardiola. At 29, Alou is an experienced player, with a more than remarkable physical potential and stands out as a disciplined player who is not accustomed to losing their position on the pitch.
In his curriculum emphasizes the presence in big teams such as Olympique Lyon, but his trip was not successful, but has been in these past two seasons when his game has exploded. The progression has been brutal, has become a key player for the whole of Laurent Blanc and allowing them to become the senior team.
Alou Diarra for highlight important details such as the economic factor. Its output should not be particularly costly and, in the worst case and a possible intransigence of the Girondins, midfielder included a contractual clause in which it is automatically released after payment of 7.75 billion euros. In addition, your current salary is slightly more than two million euros. Key figures for French football but should not cause tension in the Barca box.
You can not talk of formal negotiations, inter alia because the club is not the only European club has exercised the touchdown. Marseille are interested in Diarra and a few weeks ago was made public by the interest of Sevilla player Girondins.
Barca want to be well placed and have controlled the football in the case of having to go to market.
Alternatives to Busquets
The profile examines Pep Txiki and part of an indisputable premise: Sergio Busquets is a permanent fixture as a pivot to close in the midfield. The youth squad has earned the trust of Guardiola and the only thing needed is to find a shared computer add-off times and give the baton in terms of rotations, injuries or penalties.
Moussa Sissoko (Toulouse) and Nicolas Nkoulou (Monaco) are other objectives that stand in the list of Txiki Begiristain. In both cases it would be 20 years young talents with incredible potential and whose price would be affordable.
Yaya Toure and the City set the agenda of technical
The midfield is the focus of the technical secretariat. The public negotiations between Yaya Toure and Manchester City require that the technicians are on permanent guard if necessary speed up proceedings.
Although the Ivory Coast has opened the doors of the team, almost taken for granted that African football finally undertake a change of course bound for the Premier.
The first offer from Manchester City has not convinced and is awaiting a counter offer to raise the financial claims of the Catalan club. In principle, nothing unexpected happens, it is considered that everything is a matter of time. In the end, Touré change of scene and Barça will have to tweak your template with a new addition. The Ivorian has a key.
