As soon as Tito Vilanova took charge of affairs at the Nou Camp, he told the management that he will be signing at least two defensive players during this summer transfer window.
The first of the two defensive players was the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordi-Alba-c19111.
However, with one more player left to be signed, the Catalan giants tried to lure the Bilbao star, Javi http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468.
However, the Spanish midfielder was over-priced by the Basque outfit; therefore, the Spanish giants had to settle for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cameroon-c2865 star, Alex Song.
Song was phenomenal throughout the last season campaign which he played out for the North London side, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, and that is the reason why he attracted interest from the European giants, Barcelona.
Even though Song was signed before Barcelona faced their first opponents, he was not played by Tito Vilanova against Real Sociedad and Real Madrid.
However, now the reports suggest that Alex Song might be taking part in the Barcelona team.
According to Tito Vilanova, Alex Song is doing well during the training sessions and that is the reason why he will be included in the squad that travels to Osasuna on Sunday.
Barcelona take on the challenge of Osasuna over the weekend and the fans might see their newly signed midfielder, Alex Song, on the bench.
While speaking about the Cameroonian midfielder, Tito Vilanova said:
"He's only been training a few days but we've explained to him a couple of moves and we'll decide if he has to play. He's adapting quickly and he comes from a club with similar methods to Barcelona.”
Barcelona won their first La Liga game 5-1 against Real Sociedad and then faced Real Madrid in the first leg of the Supercopa de Espana which they also won 3-2.
The Catalan giants will now be facing Osasuna over the weekend and then they will be taking on the challenge of Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu, for the second leg of the Supercopa de Espana.
