We do not know what the route of Ferran Jutglà. We can intuit that he will not be the future center forward of Barça, among other things because it is not even his natural position. But his performance against Elche shows that given the lack of talent in the first team – if you can’t sign what you want – it is always a better formula to look towards the subsidiary than to go out on the market to incorporate any mediocrity.
Players like Luuk de Jong, Braithwaite the former Boateng They are strikers who came to Barça already with a path laid out in middle-class clubs and who would never have imagined wearing the Barça shirt. They are patches. The club lowered its bar for demands regarding the quality it incorporates and the result speaks for itself. Their signings only serve to remind us of the failure of the sports management of the moment and, without them having any responsibility, every minute of theirs on the field damages the image of the club.
A drag, but not a wrong signing

Barça must aspire to sign contrasted talents or promising players, footballers that its quarry cannot provide. Then you will be right or wrong, as happened with Coutinho, an excellent player with apparent Barça level that has not worked. Another thing is that an exorbitant amount was paid for it framed in a context of waste. That mistake is huge, it has been a drag on the club’s coffers and even on sports management, but it is not a wrong signing in concept.
Maybe Jutglà do not race. In fact, his path in the club is recent and he was not one of the chosen ones, but he was not one at the time Pedro. And the canary broke all the forecasts. Not all the young people we have seen these days are going to have a long future at Barça, but their impudence, their personality, their desire to succeed, are priceless. They are a much more hopeful message than the message sent when betting on a patch, simply because it is the only thing you can afford. And also, they are cheaper.
