Koeman vetoes Neto's departure

Ronald Koeman, Barcelona coach, confirmed that Neto's agents have requested the departure of the Brazilian goalkeeper in the winter market and that the response of the club, and therefore the coach, has been a no. “It is true that Neto's representative has asked for an exit and we have said no. He is an important goalkeeper for us and we want to have all positions covered,” the coach explained briefly.

With a contract until 2023, the Brazilian goalkeeper has understood that he will not have opportunities while Ter Stegen is at Barça because the German wants to play everything. That is why he asked his agents to activate his exit. Arsenal is one of the clubs that had been interested in him, but Neto has encountered Koeman's refusal, who has enough with being denied by the candidates, who have vetoed the signings, to see players leave the squad without having warranty replacements. This is the stage today. Another thing is that a possible offer from Neto could open the option of signing someone if the candidates, who these days look more for their interests than for the club, gave the green light to Carles Tusquets, president of the Manager, to make a signing with the money that could be received from the former Juventus and Valencia goalkeeper, among others.
