Barcelona defender Marcos Alonso has put paid to the multiple reports in the last few months that he has agreed terms with Atletico Madrid. The veteran defender is out of contract at the end of the month, and will not remain at Barcelona.
Speaking at a golf tournament in Mallorca, Alonso explained briefly to the press, in this case Sport, that he was unsure of where he was headed next season.
“At the moment I don’t even know where I’m going to play. So now let’s disconnect and I hope to have news soon…”
🚨 Flick and Deco don't want to sell either of De Jong and Araújo. They're key pieces for the coach's project. Only XXL size offers will be listened to, and an example is set from the club: if Caicedo cost 133 million euros and Enzo Fernández 121, Araújo is worth even more.…

Alonso also commented on the exit of Xavi Hernandez, who in the space of a month went from resignation, to staying at Barcelona to being sacked by the club.
“I have experienced it like everyone else, surprised by the changes of direction. But these are things that happen and you have to keep your mind set on next season.”

The 34-year-old Alonso has plenty of experience to his name, but was hampered by injuries this season, playing a handful of minutes this calendar year. The previous season he was an adequate back-up for Alejandro Balde and Jordi Alba, operating more often as an emergency central defender. He was consistently praised by Xavi for his impact on the dressing room, and has been linked with Girona too.

Not really. These are not things that happen in a normal club with normal people running it. These things usually happen in mental facilities where inmates run the show.
The diIdoIona humiliation of three trophies in last five seasons caused them to take it out on xavidiot himself but somehow spared laPorky himself.
Thats how you know for a fact the club wont be having any progress, since they fired the only person who told the truth about emperor not having any clothes and they quote “cant even compare to Madrid”. It will be more of the same since the root the problem, laPorka, is still remaining while lying to barcelongo♿️ds that everything is hunky dory and economy is great. Whatta gullible idiots.
Imagine the humiliation of reading that your own coach and Negreira-enabled legend tells you (something everyone else already knew) that Madrid is years ahead.
PAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🫵🤣
