Atletico left-back Look forward to the offer from Barcelona

Filipe Luis
DBasia.news – Atletico Madrid left-back, Filipe Luis, is rumored to be a coating for Jordi Alba, Barcelona left back. The position of the left back is Barca’s priority next summer.
Alba is supposed to have coatings from La Masia academy products, Miranda. But, Ernesto Valverde, Barca coach, was not sure of him. In addition to Miranda, Barca can also return Marc Cucurella from his loan at Eibar.
But according to the news reported by Sport-English, Filipe Luis could be an option for Barcelona because he was waiting for an offer from the Catalunya team. The 33-year-old player’s contract ends with Atletico Madrid at the end of this season.
Reportedly, Luis has refused to join Borussia Dortmund because he is waiting for an offer from Barcelona. If the offer does not come, Luis prefers to return to Brazil and play for Flamengo.
“My priority now is to extend the contract with Atletico, but I (also) open with offers (from other clubs),” Luis told Globoesporte.
Luis is not a long-term option for Barcelona, but he could be the right solution for the club to cover Alba. Besides being full of experience and quality, Luis is also very familiar with the Spanish football culture because he played there from 2005.
