In Barcelona and in Italy it is assumed that Miralem Pjanic she will be dressed in azulgrana. The Bosnian will arrive on Camp Nou under the barter formula and that is that in times of coronavirus you have to tighten your belt. Arthur will sign with the Juventus Turin and the still soccer player White black will do the same for the Barcelona.
Between this mess of comings and goings, what many may not remember are a list of Pjanic’s declarations of love for him. Real Madrid. Barça sign Madridism and it is not the first time, famous was the case of Halilovic, who had on his wrist written in ink “Hala Madrid”, something that was later covered up.
Pulling out a newspaper archive, Barça fans will always have at hand the Madridista statements of their new signing. “Now I’m fine in Rome, but I don’t know if I’m going out this summer or not. If they ask me about my favorite team, I’ll tell them that I’ve always liked Real Madrid since I was a child,” he said several years ago.

He is also an avowed fan of Zinedine Zidane, legend of the white set and, in addition, its current entreator. “As a child I decided to be a footballer thanks to him. He was the best I had ever seen,” he said. And continuing with his winks …: “It is the team of my childhood -for Real Madrid-. Who does not dream of playing with them.”
Close to fulfill your dream
In the past, Pjanic was very close to confirming his signing for Real Madrid. They say that on up to two occasions the white club tested their options to bring him to the Santiago Bernabeu. None was resolved and the midfielder went from playing for the Roma to do it for the Old lady.
Now, at the age of 30, the time has come for him to set course for Spain. It will not be to play on the team of his childhood, but to do it on his eternal rival. It was even spoken at the time that the meringues had submitted an offer for him of 60 million euros and even one of his former colleagues confirmed the interest of the thirteen-time champion of Europe.

Benatia affirmed last April that “Real Madrid tried to sign Pjanic” and not only the merengue team, but also the PSG. Although he also stated that due to the midfielder’s plans there was no option to leave Turin, where he is one of the “senators” in the dressing room and now his signing for Barça will be confirmed.
Be that as it may, Miralem Pjanic was left without wearing the white elastic, something he dreamed of since he was just a child. Follow in the footsteps of his idol Zinedine Zidane and even, to put the icing on the cake, play at his command at the Santiago Bernabéu. Due to the situation of the staff, his transfer never ended up fitting into the ecosystem already reigning in Concha Espina.
Market situation
With the crisis that is already in place and that will last over time, colossal operations such as those of years past are not expected in football. ‘See you later’ to the signings that exceeded 150 million euros and even 200 ‘kilos’. This is why players like Kylian Mbappé they aim to stay in their hitherto clubs waiting for the horizon to clear.
This situation has triggered the barter formula to be accepted by the majority. You give me. I give you. Thus, young Arthur, who was one of Barça’s bets for the present and future, leaves without success at Camp Nou, while a 30-year-old veteran Pjanic arrives in Barcelona, where they will never forget that his star signing of the summer he is madridista at heart.
