No consensus over Dani Parejo at Barca
Dani Parejo is one of the names in FC Barcelona's orbit following the departure of Sergio Busquets. His arrival would bring experience and would fit the profile that Xavi Hernandez is looking for, but does not generate consensus at the club.
Parejo is a proven player who has one year left on his contract with Villarreal, which expires in 2024. It would be an affordable operation, more than that of other players who have also sounded in this position as Brozovic, Oriol Romeu and above all, Zubimendi.
Remarkable season at Villarreal
Xavi Hernández would be satisfied if Parejo arrived, as he considers that he still has years of football at a high level. Without going any further, this season he has played 50 games in all competitions, playing more than 3,800 minutes, scoring three goals and providing six assists.
But within the club he does not generate the same consensus as in the technical staff. The sporting management does not see it so clearly and his age is considered to be a handicap. Last April he turned 34.
The difficulty of replacing Busquets
In the offices would be more in favour of signing a younger and more experienced midfielder in the coming seasons. It is clear that Sergio Busquets is an irreplaceable player and finding a replacement for him is no easy task. Xavi would be more inclined towards the security that Parejo gives him, whom he knows to perfection and in the club there are doubts.
In fact, this is not the first time that Dani Parejo has been linked with FC Barcelona. In previous years he has already been mentioned, once with a lot of strength, but for one reason or another, he never signed for Barça. Now it would be the last chance and it is not at all clear.
