Barcelona –
Luis Suárez is likely to stay at Barcelona. But if Suárez leaves, Ronald Koeman wants Romelu Lukaku taken to Barcelona.
It was widely rumored that Suarez was heading out of the Camp Nou in this summer market. With one year remaining on his contract, the Uruguayan attacker is expected to continue his career at Juventus.
However, rumors have recently emerged that Suarez’s transfer to Turin is canceled. The former Ajax and Liverpool forward did not have enough time to take the citizenship test to obtain an Italian passport. This must be done because the quota of non-EU Juventus players is full.
Another option for Suárez is to join Atlético de Madrid or Paris St. Germain. However, great opportunity The gunman He survived because he demanded full compensation for the rest of his contract, but so far Barcelona has not agreed.
According to the news sport 3, which is cited SPORT, Koeman had wanted Barcelona to hunt down Inter Milan bomber Romelu Lukaku to replace Suárez. Ronald Koeman coached Lukaku for one season at Everton with 26 goals and 7 assists in 39 appearances.
The Dutch manager was also said to have even personally asked Barcelona to buy Lukaku after being appointed as Quique Setien’s successor. Despite the fact that the club has been strongly linked with another Inter Milan striker, Lautaro Martínez.
However, the financial crisis that hit Barcelona forced Luis Suárez to leave. The proof is that Barcelona is having trouble getting Memphis Depay from Marseille despite the ransom of only a maximum of 30 million euros.
Barcelona coach Ronald Keoman said his club must sell the players before they can buy again. “For Depay to come, we have to sell players first,” Koeman told Fox Sports a few days ago.
Realistically, it’s a bit difficult to get Lukaku out of Inter just one season after being signed by Manchester United for € 80m. Especially last season, Lukaku was brilliant with 34 goals in 51 appearances for Nerazzurri and you are still bound by a long-term contract.
