The Legans striker arrives as a relief from the injured Ousmane Dembl and swells a wide list of unexpected reinforcements.
Braithwaite, in a match with Denmark, last November.
Martin Braithwaite He is the chosen one. The Legans striker, for whom Bara will pay the 18 million euros of his rescission clause, will be in charge of filling the gap left by the injury of Ousmane Dembl. The dans, who has scored six goals with the Madrid team in the 24 league games he has played this season, with a goal for every 322 minutes played, has been imposed on Angel, who adds 10 goals in 21 duels in the League with Getafe, but with an average of somewhat for every 95 minutes played. The one of Braithwaite, in addition, swells an already quite long list: that of the most inexplicable signings of the Barcelona team.
One of the most characteristic examples is that of Julio Csar Romero, Romerito. The Paraguayan arrived at Bara at the end of April 1989. Jos Mari Bakero He had been seriously injured and, although the then Barca coach, Johan Cruyff, wanted to anticipate the arrival of Ronald Koeman and even the possible signings of Michael Laudrup Y Enzo Francescoli, Romerito was his definitive bet. So much so that he made his debut as a starter on May 1 against Real Madrid at the Bernabu. He could have been the great hero for the Barcelona players, but he had two clear chances in a game that ended with 0-0 on the scoreboard and the League practically sentenced for the whites. In total, I played seven league games and scored a goal against Mlaga, and that same year he went to Mexican Puebla.
It was also as a minimum I miss the signing of Igor Korneiev. The Russian arrived at Bara at the end of August 1994, after dissociating himself from Espanyol, but they did not start with the first team until January 15, 1995, before the Achievements. I played the first games of the campaign with the Barcelona subsidiary, since the club did not have any free chips of the four reserved for foreign players. Romario's escape to Flamengo opened the doors and former president Josep Llus Nez came to praise his game as a right winger. I played 12 league games and one of the Champions before leaving with the freedom card under his arm to Herenveen.
From Guaratinguet to Camp Nou
Christophe Dugarry, on the other hand, also had a fleeting step. Brill in that Bordeaux Girondins who was UEFA runner-up with Zinedine Zidane to the baton, but in Milan he saw how his wake began to plummet to end up crashing completely in the Bara. As a Barça player, I played seven league games in the 1997-98 season and was transferred to Olympique de Marseille in that same winter market.
More strangers were the signings of Marcelo Y Triguinho. Both were incorporated from the Guaratinguet of the second Brazilian division on the recommendation of Rivaldo, who shares club ownership with Csar Sampaio, in the 2000-01 season. Triguinho only played a friendly one, but Marcelo managed to be part of the first team squad for the long-term injury of Abelard. I only played two games, of the Catalunya Cup, and was given that same summer to Nstic de Tarragona.
A cctel with your name
Dmitro Chigrinski, the great whim of Guardiola in the 2009-10 season, also passed with more pain than glory for Barcelona. Although, that is, a famous cocktail shaker, very close to the Rambla, baptized a cctel with its name. The fact that he played the European Super Cup against the Barça players in August 2009 with Shakhtar Donetsk prevented him from being registered in the Champions League, despite the fact that the club disbursed 24 million euros to get his signing. In total, he only played 12 games with the Barca shirt, in which he was always under the magnifying glass, and ended up returning to his home club in summer 2010 in exchange for 15 million euros.
And we arrive at the last fiasco of the Bara's transfer agenda: Kevin-Prince Boateng. The striker arrived at Camp Nou in the winter market last season as a loan from Sassuolo in exchange for two million euros, only played three league games and one of Copa del Rey and scored no goal. From the Italian club, perhaps in a display of optimism, they came to slide that they were convinced that they would charge the eight million euros that consisted of their purchase option. An extreme that did not come true
