Barcelona achieved an important victory over Deportivo Alaves with three clean goals in the match that took place on Sunday evening, strengthening its position at the top of the Spanish League.
The goals of the match were scored by Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, who continued his brilliance this season, bringing Barcelona’s tally to 24 points from 9 matches, outperforming its traditional rival Real Madrid by 3 points.
According to information from the Catalan newspaper “Sport,” German coach Hansi Flick informed Barcelona’s young left-back, Gerard Martin, after the Alaves match that he needed to seek a new team to join in January.
The newspaper added that the German coach told Laporta that the player currently lacks the level necessary to represent the colors of the Blaugrana due to his inexperience and some shortcomings in fulfilling his positional duties.
The newspaper indicated that Flick advised the player that it would be in his best interest to leave and find a club that would provide him with the opportunity to develop, suggesting that he might return to the Catalan club in the future, as he is not ready yet.
The newspaper concluded that the German coach prefers Hector Fort over defender Gerard Martin and believes that Fort has the potential to become the best in the coming years, which reduces Martin’s chances of getting an opportunity.
