The goal is one of the positions that Xavi Hernandez would you like to prop on the Barça. The priorities, however, are different and looking for a goalkeeper to cover a hypothetical Neto, if it happens, it would not be on the table now. It happens, however, that one of the candidates that the previous technical secretariat liked, Louis Maximian (23 years) of Granadaand that is in the current folder has become one of the bargains on the market.
The Portuguese signed last season with the Andalusian club until 2025. It cost 4.5 million euros, plus another half million in variables in case of permanence. A good operation powered by Pep Boadaformer technical secretary of Granada, who in his time at Barça I had already tried to ‘catch’ him. Maximian It has a clause of 25 million euros but the relegation has caused, as stipulated in its contract, that its price is reduced by half, as revealed by El Ideal de Granada.
Such a low price for the goalkeeper who has made the most stops (127) in LaLiga 2021-2022 has meant that not only Barça has noticed him. Napoli are also behind to make up for the possible departure of David Ospina y Álex Meret, both at the limit of their contract. There are many other teams on the prowl, like the Almeriathe one that is making the most movements, especially after it is going to receive some ten million for rights in the sale of Darwin Nunez of Benfica al Liverpool.
In the Barça, the name is on the list but the new sports management has not made any contact to date, as MD has learned. the output of Neto it is unavoidable. The player wants minutes but the problem is his high chip that drives away potential buyers. The Barça club has made the decision to bet on Iñaki Peña, who this year has played in the Galatasaray of Domènec Torrent.
