Julián has become the great soap opera of the summer. Since MARCA revealed exclusively on May 25 that his desire was to continue his career at Barça, chapters have followed until reaching a labyrinth with a difficult solution. A problem raised to the maximum with the forward’s own words during the World Cup dispute. You know, “the dream” that turned red-and-white news upside down.
Although without being comparable for everything that surrounds the Spider, There are other ‘labyrinths’ in the current red and white squad. Players whose continuity in the project is more than doubtful and who condition Mateu’s roadmap in his complicated first summer market. The signings largely depend on getting them to leave and the amount that can be obtained for them. that the Balearic Islands can get beyond Grimaldo and Kang-in Lee, the first two pieces.

Various discards
Among those that will be most difficult to place are two centrals. Gimenez and Lenglet They still have two more years on their contract but the sports management’s intention is to end the relationship that exists this summer. They are not comparable cases because The Uruguayan is the third captain and his weight is indisputable in the boothso much so that excessive pressure is not exerted when it comes to opening the exit door for him after 13 years defending the red and white. Another thing is that his last years, full of physical mishaps, have left him without the importance in the rotation that he had a few seasons ago.
In the case de Lenglet, was signed for three seasons just a year ago and has not gone beyond being the fifth center back in the rotation. Only injuries have given him games that on several occasions he messed up with rude mistakes that cost points. Giving him the letter of freedom seems a feasible option But it remains to be seen if the Frenchman agrees to break his ties with the red and whites.

Collect with the forwards
If it could barely be raised for the two centre-backs, this is not the case for the two offensive players who are on the starting ramp. Both Sorloth and Almada are competing in the World Cup with Norway and Argentina as startersso its possible sales would be accompanied by a good amount of millions of euros.
In that sense, it would be necessary go to the market to sign a 9 and a versatile player to occupy several attacking positions like him still 11 red and white. A large part of his future will depend on his good performances in the national team event, which could be linked to Serie A (in the case of Sorloth) and to Arabia (in that of Almada).
Other options
In addition to these four players, the red and white squad has other players who could abandon the entity to bring offers that satisfy both to the protagonists and to an Atlético that has many labyrinths of exits to solve… even though everything seems to be limited to what ends up happening with Julián’s future.
