FC BARCELONA | AJAX DEFENDER GREGORY VAN DER WEIL INTERESTS

Source : Sp Ftball /

Name: Gregory van der Wiel
Age: 22 years
Nationality: Dutch
Club: Ajax of Amsterdam
Profession: Right Back Defender


FC BARCELONA considers the player as a potential “star” in the making & has been following Van der Wiel for sometime. The player is powerful, offensive minded with the sufficient defensive discipline to ensure that his forward movements do not leave the a "hole" in the defence. Barça believes that they can secure his services for around 6M€, which will be more, simply because it is FC Barcelona.

The intention is to have the young Dutch International available in case Abidal fulls injured or needs a rest ( yes, what about Maxwell?) . Curious if you consider that the player would have to adapt to the other wing as Dani Alves currently hold his “natural position”. Said this, this is not uncommon as Arbeloa of Real Madrid demonstrates in certain occasions when his team needs his services in the other flank (in this case the left side) that it can be done. Lastly
reports indicate that Van Der Wiel has also played as a Central Defender, thus giving himself more tactical value & more attraction for the Spanish Champions.

According to Barcelona based Sports daily “Mundo Deportivo” Barça is already in discussions to examine the demands & all the fine details in order to successfully complete this operation. The only possible set back that may arise is the outcome of next months FC Barcelona Presidential elections, were the incoming new President may have different ideas from the current “Technical Advisors”. Stay tuned!
