Angel Rodriguez to Barça? Getafe shows itself ready to talk

Actually the transfer window in Spain is already closed, but an exception offers a loophole. Clubs with a lot of injuries are allowed to make improvements from time to time. FC Barcelona is one such club.

After the long-term losses of Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembelé and the departures of Carles Perez (loaned to AS Rome) and talent Abel Ruiz (loaned to Sporting Braga), Barcelona are under pressure, especially in attack. The short-term solution is Angel Rodriguez, striker for surprise team FC Getafe. The 32-year-old is currently experiencing his second springtime in third place, scoring nine goals in 19 league games. He also scored regularly in the Europa League (three goals in six games) in the group stage, and the Madrid-based team are now in the last 32 (against Ajax Amsterdam).
