translated from Spanish: Ernesto Valverde: “Arturo Vidal is ours and I count on him. We’ll see what happens.”

FC Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde on Thursday claimed to have midfielder Arturo Vidal for the 2019-2020 season, despite rumours giving the Chilean as part of the move with PSG to get Neymar back to the cul he. The Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo revealed today that the ‘King’ would be part of the barter between the culé and the popular French club to get the services of the Brazilian striker, since the Blaugranas are not in a position to pay the 300 million euros that costs his letter. Asked for the possibility that Vidal leaves the Blaugrana store and reaked at PSG, Valverde briefly stated at a press conference that “Arturo Vidal is ours and I count with him. We’ll see what happens, I say the same about possible arrivals.” Faced with the choice that Neymar returns, the Catalan team’s strategist said: “I am on the sidelines of all these issues. I focus on the team and the players I have to face this game. I don’t think about players from other teams. Neymar’s from PSG and we’ll see what happens, but I can’t say anything about that.” “I’m not thinking about it. I’m thinking about the match (with Athletic) and preparing the game with the players I have. Not that any more players are coming,” he added. Barcelona will debut in the Spanish league on Friday against Athletic Bilbao, in a duel to be played at 15:00 hours in Chile at the Estadio San Mamés.
