Blanes: There is interest in signing players from Barcelona

Ramon Blanes, the sports director of the Jeddah Football Association, spoke this evening, Tuesday, about the possibility of the dean signing major players, such as Christensen, the Barcelona player, for large sums.

Blanes said in press statements: “Yes, we will do everything we can to strengthen the team. When I joined the club, I got the opportunity to develop an organizational structure similar to what exists in European clubs.”

He added: “We now have about 8-9 people who were working in Barcelona and are currently working with me at the Union.”

When asked, is there interest in including players from Barcelona? He said: “In fact, yes, there are some players who were mentioned in the press last summer, and we were in contact with them to try to find a solution to the possibility of their transfer to Saudi Arabia, but in the end that was not possible.”

He continued: “Barcelona has interesting players, and certainly many of them may have a future in the Saudi League, but so far, no agreement has been reached with any of them.”

He talked about having contact with Araujo and Pedri, the Barcelona duo: “I think they are both very happy in Barcelona, ​​there is no doubt about that at all, they are very happy to stay at the club.”

He concluded: “ But at the same time, they are also two of the most sought-after players in Europe, and there is no doubt about that - not only them, but even Gavi, there are several files open, and it is clear that these things will not be easy.”
