A lack of money in the coffers, Barcelona and Valencia have started the game for change summer cards. At the request of the Barça club -and with great interest on the part of the black and white- the president anil murthy has traveled with the counselor Joey Lim to meet in a restaurant in Barcelona with the president Joan Laporta and the counselor Rafa Yusteas the program revealed jijantes.
The Barcelona has shown ‘official’ interest in Carlos Soler, but acknowledging that they cannot assume the cost of one operation taking into account the current value of the player (between 40 and 50 million of euros). In fact, the Barça leaders have recognized that, after the winter market and despite some sales, they are not preparing a big trading market.
Laporta has put on the table the names of three discards of Xavi to reduce the cost of a possible operation Carlos Soler or aside from it: Riqui Puig, Sergio Dest and Braithwaite. The danish strikerwho was already in Valencia’s orbit, is not a goal right now and the dest progression could collide with Thierry Rendall, if it is still after this summer. In case of Riqui Puig will have to study it. And here, the first thing that Valencia has to do is decide if its project is going to lead it again Jose Bordals -with a one-year contract- or another coach.
With or without Bordals, murty has on the horizon budget obligation. Valencia has to enter 37 million euros net in sales of players before June 30 and the names that stand out to make cash are those of the two homegrownalready consecrated as absolute international.
From gayfor which last year s showed interest Mateu Alemany, has not been expressly discussed in this meeting, although it is not ruled out that it may be dealt with later. Precisely that meeting in which the Majorcan executive also asked for Yunus Musah was held in a restaurant in Tortosa, in what is understood halfway between both cities. However, this time the meeting was in Barcelona.
The meeting between the two parties comes at a convulsive moment in Valencia by the audios filtered by super sportin which the president anil murty recognizes on the one hand that to usually do he wants to leave and, on the other, that gay won’t want to stay. Precisely, Carlos Soler and Gay are two of the names that appear in those conversations.
The midfielder, whose contract ends in June 2023, has not yet renewed with him Valencia. In the case of gay which also ends in 2023, he is a very interesting footballer for him Camp Nou. In fact, the Barça technical secretariat has been following this side for a long time.
The two players have held negotiations throughout the season to extend their contracts and in both cases there have been offers and counteroffers, but without reaching an agreement. For him Valencia, which has to enter 37 million euros net in sales of players before June 30, the departure of two homegrown players -being more painful- is the one that brings the greatest benefit when it comes to amortized footballers. Everything that enters through them serves to reduce the sales figure.
as long as it occurs this meeting between the directors of Valencia and Barcelona, Carlos Soler has published a photo with Jos Luis Gay in Instagram inside a restaurant without any added message. The Valencia squad has the day off this tuesday and not be until wednesday when both return to work under the discipline of Jose Bordals in the sports city of paternal.
