Player of FC Barcelona between 2000 and 2004, the Dutchman Marc Overmars could become one of the great enemies of the "culé" team during the next summer transfer window. The Dutchman currently works as the director of sports at Ajax Amsterdam, but it is very likely that he will begin to perform very similar functions at another great club on the continent, Arsenal, and end up complicating some operations that the Blaugrana entity already has in mind.
According to Mundo Deportivo, it is very likely that if he lands at the Emirates Stadium, the director will try to use his influence to bring two players who had already caught the attention of Barcelona to the London team, the center-back Matthijs de Ligt and the forward Kasper Dolberg.
The arrival of the former in England would be particularly painful, as it has been reported in recent days that the Dutchman is the defensive player that the Blaugrana leaders desire the most. Perhaps for this reason, because they already anticipate such a situation, the Catalans do not rule out advancing their offensive and going for the player in January.
The departure of Dolberg may not be so worrying. Although Barcelona's technical secretary considers him a budding talent, they also understand that it would be very risky to sign him now and place him in the shadow of the, for now, untouchable Luis Suárez.
