Some Barcelona supporters are pleading with Ronald Koeman to play the Leeds United-linked midfielder, Riqui Puig.
Leeds are one of several sides who have been offered the Barca midfielder on loan, according to 90min.
Puig has played just three minutes of first-team football all season and his agent is said to have been in touch with Leeds to gauge whether such a move could be possible, as he tries to find a temporary home for his client in January.
It is claimed that Koeman, the current Barcelona manager, is not considered a long-term option and the 21-year-old is therefore eyeing a fresh chance under a new boss next season, rather than seeking a permanent transfer.
But as far as the following Barca fans are concerned, Puig should not be leaving.
And some even feel that allowing him to do so should be deemed a sackable offence…
A club like Leeds could be a good fit for Puig, with the Whites having tried and failed to strengthen in his position earlier this year.
A move for the Bayern Munich midfielder, Michael Cuisance, appeared to be done at one stage, but a vacancy remains and was further exposed during Kalvin Phillips’s recent absence.
Leeds, though, are not the only English club in the conversation, according to 90min – which claims that Puig has also been proposed to RB Leipzig and AS Monaco.
