Barcelona’s squad changes Alexis Sanchez in, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bojan-Krkic-c7794 and Oriol Romeu Vidal out – La Liga Special
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Barcelona-c39078 have been heavy spenders of late, exciting their fans to the fullest, and they have made quite a stir with their latest stint in the transfer market. The Catalan giants were involved in three deals. Alexis Sanchez has finally joined the club,
much to joy of the Catalan faithful, while youngsters Bojan Krkic and Oriol Romeu Vidal bid farewell to Camp Nou.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oriol-c28659 Romeu, meanwhile, has been
snapped up by English side Chelsea, who will pay 5 million Euros for his services.
Barcelona have been in contact with the South American winger for quite some time, with the Zeberette owner, Giampaolo Pozzo, stating that the prodigal talent will only join the Catalan club. After weeks of haggling over the transfer fee, the 22-year-old
finally gets to live his Blaugrana dream.
Manager Josep Guardiola had earmarked the player as the future of the club. With http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 international, David Villa showing indifferent form for the Catalans, a replacement was duly needed. Villa endured a barren patch during the concluded season, and did
not score for over two months. Guardiola was alerted by this inconsistent form of the Spanish ace, and stated his desire for a replacement.
Sanchez joins the club with a bag full of skills and tricks, attributes that helped him score 12 goals in Serie A for Udinese. With Manchester United and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan keeping tabs on him, it is a remarkable steal for the Catalan titans.
He will become a part of Blaugrana attacking trident. His versatility allows him to take any attacking role the coach might wish for him to play. He excelled for Udinese this campaign playing behind striker Antonio Di Natalie, scoring goals for fun and assisting
his attack partners. At Camp Nou, however, he will be placed on the left side of the field, the place where http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Villa-c10629 is deployed.
As http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexis-Sánchez-c4979 makes Catalunya his home, Bojan will leave his familiar surroundings and continue his footballing career at AS Roma. In Rome he will be reunited with former Barcelona B coach, Luis Enrique. The attacker is the second Spanish youngster coming
to the Italian Capital, joining Jose Angel of Sporting de Gijon.
Bojan had found himself on the fringes of first team action and wanted to have a bigger share of first team action. Tired of substitute appearances, one time capped Spanish international moves to the ambitious setup at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603. Under the tutelage of Luis Enrique
and mentoring from Francisco Totti, he should be able to develop into the striker he was destined to become.
Chelsea have also raided Barcelona to reinforce their squad. Spanish youngster Oriol Romeu swaps Barcelona for London as the looks to replace http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Essien-c25294. Romeu joins English teenager Josh McEachran to replace the Ghanaian star, who is out of action until
the New Year. He will become a part of Andre Villas Boas’ revolution at Chelsea, who continue to hunt for the elusive UEFA Champions League.
With the transfer window reaching the end of July, Pep Guardiola has completed his first piece of business – and he should be more than content really. Catalan faithful will keep their fingers crossed and hope Alexis improves on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Villa’s performances.
On the other hand, they bid farewell to the outgoing young stars in hope that they excel with their new clubs – and you don’t expect anything less from La Masia graduates.
