Deco and his work at FC Barcelona
Deco, the sporting director of FC Barcelona, is dedicating all his efforts to solving the multiple tasks accumulated after the recent meeting with Hansi Flick at the Ciutat Esportiva. In close collaboration with the German technician, Deco has started to set up his professional contacts to address all outstanding issues one by one.
Deco and his work with Porto
One of the entities Deco is working with is Porto. The former player has a good relationship with those responsible for the Portuguese club and is looking for solutions that are beneficial for both parties. According to SPORT reports, Deco has held a virtual meeting with André Villas-Boas, president of the club, to discuss various issues. One of these topics highlights the name of Mika Fayé, who is playing his first season at Barça Atlètic under the direction of Rafa Márquez.
Deco finds a destination for Mika Fayé
FC Barcelona has a lot of confidence in the young Senegalese central defender and they see him as having the right profile to play even as a left back. Unfortunately, due to the excess of players in the central position, Mika Fayé has not had the expected opportunities. This situation will also be repeated with Hansi Flick, since the German coach has already defined his ideal group of central players and the young talent is not included. According to the same media, Barça and Mika Fayé’s representatives have already reached an agreement for his departure. If an offer of at least 15 million euros arrives and the player accepts both sportingly and financially, the club will accept his departure. In addition, Barça will reserve a repurchase option at a previously stipulated price and will include a percentage of the capital gain in the event of a future sale. This agreement allows the club to maintain some control over the player’s future, despite his departure.
Negotiations between Barça and Porto
Currently, negotiations between FC Barcelona and Porto are progressing positively. The proposal presented includes all the demands of Barça’s sports management to ensure that Mika Fayé, who turns 20 and has great potential, does not leave the Catalan club’s radar. In this way, it is guaranteed that the player will continue under the supervision of Barça, even after his departure. In any case, the departure of Mika Fayé would be an important loss for the club, as he is considered one of the great talents of his generation, along with players like Gavi or Fermín López.
