KO for Oriol Romeu, Deco surprises Laporta with this surprise interest from the Premier League

The midfield position has gone from being one of the greatest certainties at Barça, to a complete unknown and a complete headache for Xavi, who after having a legend like Sergio Busquets, now faces the void left by the eternal pivot in a demarcation that, after the failure of Oriol Romeu, is without an owner, something that forces the culé sports management to look for solutions, which would be none other than the signing of Amadou Onana, who according to Footmercato, is on the list of future prospects for the next summer market.

With the arrival of Oriol Romeu, Xavi hoped to get a much more complete player than he has ended up proving to be. The one from Ulldecona does not meet the basic qualities to be that midfielder that Xavi needs, that is, both physical and capable in recovering the ball, as well as skilled in distributing it. In this sense, Onana responds to all the mentioned characteristics.

During his time at a particularly weak Everton, the Belgian has proven to be a player of unquestionable physical power thanks to his 1.90m that allows him to be formidable in both aerial and hand-to-hand disputes, where he is unbeatable. On the other hand, and despite not having been able to demonstrate it on his team, Onana has more than correct qualities with the ball at his feet.

Obviously, without reaching the excellence of Busquets, but much better than Oriol Romeu, who has lost all credit due to his shortcomings in this aspect. The arrival of Amadou Onana is directly linked to the state of Barça's economy. Landing him in January is very complicated and would only be possible if done through a loan with a purchase option for the summer, when Deco and Laporta will have greater freedom to undertake the operations they consider appropriate and viable.

Modify the team's goal

In the case of Onana, it would be necessary to see if a payment close to 50 million euros is possible given the precarious financial health of the club. Thus, Deco and Joan Laporta have already offered a new option to Xavi in order to undertake a reinforcement signing for the pivot posit
