Arturo Vidal is not one of those who shut things up. He wants more minutes at Barça. But, in two meetings as important as those played against Borussia Dortmund or Atlético, the coach, Ernesto Valverde , opted to give Ivan Rakitic ownership. The situations of both are very even, but now the Croatian seems to have won whole in the coach's plans. Something that, perhaps, Inter could take advantage of to take the Chilean back to Italy in the winter market.

In the interist group, precisely, Lautaro Martínez plays who they are placing with great insistence as a possible reinforcement for Barça. There is speculation that the transfer of Arturo Vidal may have a lot to do with his hypothetical landing at Camp Nou, although Inter is not in the job of selling it. Beyond that, the Chilean, as they say from Italy, is very interested in the Neroazzurri. To such an extent, that his agent would have requested a meeting with the Barca entity to learn firsthand about his plans.

«There is a lot of information that comes out in the media and I am not going to value it. Arturo Vidal is our player and we are happy with him. We have a game against Mallorca and may play it or not, we'll see. In the same way, we will see what will end up happening when the winter market opens, ”said Valverde. From his point of view, having a large number of midfielders does not mean that any of them will leave the entity in January.

«When the market starts, we'll see what possibilities we have. The month of January is always very busy. We have many midfielders and many alternatives, but I think there are times for everyone. All, at some point, have been necessary ”, insisted the Barcelona coach, who wanted to break a spear in favor of both its management and the performance of the team, which is measured in Mallorca at the Camp Nou.

«If we had played badly in Wanda, we would not have won. Sometimes you find a good result without a brilliant game, but usually the one who plays well is the one who wins. We are up in the rankings. Surely, there are games in which we have not played perfectly, but we are there. What we want is to play our best because that guarantees you more options to take the game, ”said a Valverde who wanted to remove iron from Messi's recent words, which has already begun to think about the end point of his career.

“It’s natural, Leo is 32 years old and doesn’t think about retiring tomorrow, but that’s clearly there. When a player passes 30, he always sees it closer. That goes around too much. You have to see it in a different, more natural way, ”he said. «I am aware of what it means to train Messi. Every day does not let you enjoy it completely, but over time I will value it more, ”he said.

From what was experienced last week, the insults to Griezmann in the Metropolitan Wanda was the most unpleasant thing. «I am not a judge nor do I have the knowledge to know what penalty corresponds to the insults to Griezmann. Before we passed them, it seemed that it was admitted that the payer could insult and I understand that it does not have to be that way because you can cheer up without disrespecting anyone, ”said Valverde.
