Since there are rumours linking Barcelona with the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 midfielder, Andres Iniesta gave his views on the Cameroonian midfielder, labelling him as a prodigy.
Last season, after losing the Spanish La Liga title and the UEFA Champions League, Josep Guardiola decided to leave Barcelona and the club’s management appointed Tito Vilanova as the new manager.
With Tito Vilanova taking charge at the Nou Camp, he told the management that he is going to require at least two defensive players during the summer transfer window.
Vilanova’s first signing was the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordi-Alba-c19111, who was not only impressive throughout the last La Liga campaign; in fact, he was simply phenomenal while performing for the Spanish national team during the Euro 2012.
With Alba already in the bag for Barcelona, they are still on a hunt for another defensive player.
The Catalan giants were linked with players such as Javi http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903. However, all these players were not made available by their respective clubs and Barcelona’s search for a defensive player
took them to North London, to the Cameroonian midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-Song-c4804.
The Arsenal player is not only a brilliant holding midfielder; in fact, he is a great passer of the ball and always adds up to the team’s attack.
Moreover, Song can also slot into any defensive role and he has often played as a defender for his club.
Therefore, Barcelona are currently monitoring his situation at Arsenal and want to sign him during this summer transfer window.
Since http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 are planning to sign the midfielder, Andres Iniesta gave his comments about the player and said:
"He's a prodigy. I don't know how many years he's been playing but he isn't a discovery from yesterday.”
"He's a good player and I've seen in a couple of publications that he could be joining our team.”
"I don't know if that would be the case but if he comes here we'll welcome him the best we can.”
"If he comes here it's because he has the ability to play here, no doubt."
It is being reported that Barcelona have made a bid of 15 million Euros for the 25-year-old.
