Barcelona to pay €40 million for an alternate player. Alberto Moleiro will cost Barcelona at least €40 million, according to El Nacional. The club’s alternate target for Arda Guler is expected to be the 19-year-old Spaniard.
The Blaugrana were frequently mentioned as potential suitors for Turkish teenager Guler. But the 18-year-old decided to sign with Real Madrid. Barca is now looking at alternative options because they want to infuse the midfield with more inventiveness.
Moleiro, a star for Las Palmas, has become a major target. He has played 80 times for the team thus far, with three goals and nine assists. Since 2019, the 19-year-old has been a member of Las Palmas.
The player has ardent supporters at Barca. However, they could have to pay a hefty sum to bring Moleiro into the fold. Despite being associated with European powerhouses like Barcelona, Moleiro is remaining grounded. According to the Catalan newspaper El Nacional.
He said: “I require more sleep. Perhaps when I want to receive the ball, I feel the temptation to move forward right away and want to do everything swiftly. Since I play with the zeal or zest of a child my age, I am the first to recognize that I lack this stop. I need to rectify that and take a deeper breath.”
Alberto Moleiro tired of comparisons with Barcelona midfielder Pedri:
Pedri of Barcelona is one of the top midfielders in the world right now. He has been an important member of Xavi’s squad. Despite just being 20 years old, Pedri is praised for his skills by both experts and fans.
In terms of playing style, Moleiro has been compared to the midfielder for the Blaugrana. Many people have compared Moleiro’s play to that of Pedri. Moleiro stated to El Dia: “It’s not a burden, but the new Pedri, the new Pedri, is becoming old after a while. I believe I’m gradually acquiring a location and a name; initially, this may have seemed normal, but I now believe it needs to be changed.”
“Being compared to a football player who is already well-known in the First Division makes me feel proud, of course. I’m just taking off my head; I’m not the new Pedri, and I’m not in this circumstance. Therefore, the comparison is poor.”
Over the coming years, Pedri is destined to establish himself as a pillar at the center of Spain’s and Barcelona’s midfield. If Barca decides to actively pursue the Las Palmas midfielder, he and Moleiro may very well end up playing together.
