    What will happen with Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes?



    Gomes has remained with Barça but his future's not clear


    He has not yet found his natural habitat at Camp Nou

    Juventus, PSG, Manchester United, Tottenham, West Ham... all these clubs, some more strongly than others, were sounded out as a possible destination for Andre Gomes this summer. In the end, the Portuguese midfielder stayed at Barça, but his future is not clear. Ernesto Valverde has a number of options in midfield, with Gomes yet to show the technique and quality he has in a blaugrana shirt. 

    Gomes didn't begin off on a decent foot at Barça when he was marked the previous summer. Right off the bat as a result of the sum, 35 million euros in addition to 20 million more in factors, exorbitant at the time, in spite of the fact that the market's changed from that point forward. There are statements in his agreement, for example, a "reward" 15 million euros in the event that he wins the Ballon d'Or. Regardless of Luis Enrique's confidence in him last season, his exhibitions added to the questions. 

    Fizzled Examination 

    It's presently an issue for Valverde to manage. The previous Athletic Club mentor has, openly, showed his trust in the player. In any case, the day he played him, it turned out poorly. It was at the Santiago Bernabeu, in the second leg of the Spanish Super Glass. He played wide in a framework with three focus backs. He began solid, sharp, however when things didn't fall off, he turned off and was in the long run taken off. 

    After, La Liga began and he was on the seat for the 2-0 win against Genuine Betis. He at that point missed the excursion to Alaves with a bug. 

    NOT FITTING IN 

    In a 4-3-3 framework, he fits best as one of the two insides, in spite of the fact that he can likewise play in the pivote position. However, Sergio Busquets is there and, in the event that he isn't, Paulinho has better attributes to fill in. 

    In principle, the inside part is perfect for the Portugal global. In Valencia he showed himself to be a total footballer, brimming with guarantee, with great vision, an ability to press, a great shot... All that is still to be found in Barcelona. 

    The issue is discovering his place, with players like Iniesta, Rakitic, Paulinho, Sergi Roberto and even Denis Suárez to contend with - in spite of the fact that Valverde's deciding on Denis in a further developed position. Perhaps he would, in this way, be more qualified to a 4-2-31 as the second pivote or the mediapunta. 


    THE MENTAL Perspective

    The problem is that Andre Gomes finds himself in a vicious circle. His first year with Barcelona, a long way from giving him confidence, has provoked insecurity. Fans and press watched him with a magnifying glass because of his cost and now needs several games to gain confidence and to believe in himself again. At Barcelona he's not a shadow of the player he was in Barcelona, or even when he plays for the national team. But how does he turn things around? There's no easy solution...
