Sao Paolo President admits that Barcelona are closing in on right-back Douglas [Sport]
Seems like a diversion tactic like Blind for Mathieu.
I am guessing he would be loaned for one year (probably to Sevilla) and brought back when Dani's contract expires next season.
Yeah, but even then, it doesn't make sense, 'cause we already have Patric and Godswill at RB in the B-team I think.Read some tweets that said we are buying him for the B team. That seems more probable.
Even for the B team, I don't get this signing. We have the players already and it seems very unlikely this guy will ever be good enough to make the step up to the first team. Yeah, I do have to wonder if it's some weird Brazilian "deal".
