Barcelona buy cheap football shirts online must attack the Monaco quarterback, Fabinho, regardless of Daniel Alves staying according to reports.
The sports daily Mundo Deportivo, quoted by Football Espana, says that the Catalan giants are ready to increase their interest in the 21-year-old after an extensive discovery by Barça Deco midfielder and director of Football Ariedo Braida.
Fabinho, who is currently loaned to Monaco on Rio Ave, was believed to be seen as a possible substitute for Daniel Alves.
The Brazilian international – 79 times – is out of contract in June and is strongly linked to names such as Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
Negotiations over a renewal have not yet reached a satisfactory conclusion and with Barcelona unsure whether Alves will remain, Fabinho would be lined up.
Now, however, this stance has changed and Mundo Deportivo believes that Fabinho will be pursued even if Alves signs a new contract.
The youngster would be Cheap Chelsea Football Shirts a natural heir of the old defense of Seville and could learn from him before finally taking the role.
An obvious stumbling block in any agreement for Fabinho is that Barcelona is operating under a transfer ban until January 2016.
They could theoretically make a deal for him now and then register their contract when they are allowed, but if Alves decides to move on, they will only have players like Adriano, Douglas and Martin Montoya as cover.
Another potential issue is the evaluation of Fabinho. The native of Campinas, who has made 49 appearances in all competitions for Monaco this season, is estimated at around € 30 million – a rate that Barcelona probably will not match.
