This Wednesday’s (15th) surprise at Beira-Rio was the call-up of midfielder Johnny by the US national team. With that, the Inter player will not be available to coach Mano Menezes for the return game against Caxias, in the semifinals of the Campeonato Gaúcho, on March 26, in Beira-Rio.
The midfielder of the North American selection could face Granada and El Salvador, on the 24th and 27th of this month. Needing to cash in and wanting to put Johnny on display, the 21-year-old’s call-up is a great opportunity for Colorado to value the athlete even more. At the beginning of the year, he had a strong poll from Betis, from Spain, in addition to the Italians from Roma and Spezia.
Johnny normally participated in this Wednesday’s activity, in preparation for the duel with Caxias, Saturday, at 4:30 pm, at the Centenário. He fights with Matheus Dias for a spot in midfield. Its competitor comes from two good performances, one in the second half of the classic Grenal and another in the defeat of Esportivo, last Saturday.
The activity has not yet had an indication of who will be the goalkeeper in Caxias do Sul. After training this Thursday, coach Mano Menezes will give a press conference at CT Parque Gigante and will be able to clarify some doubts. The main one should only be unveiled one hour before departure; who will be chosen to form the attack duo between Pedro Henrique, Wanderson and Luiz Adriano.
Off the pitch, management is analyzing whether to bring Corinthians together with Fifa for the purchase of striker Yuri Alberto. According to the value provided for in the contract, Colorado would have 10% of a future negotiation involving the athlete. What the São Paulo club alleges is that in order to keep the player, Timão lent goalkeeper Ivan, defender Robert Renan, midfielder Du Queiroz and strikers Mantuan and Pedro. However, even if there is no amount in cash, these athletes have market value and that is what Inter clings to to collect their rights.
The amount worked on by the management is 30 million euros (R$ 167.7 million) for each Corinthians player traded. In this way, Inter would be entitled to 3 million euros (R$ 16.7 million).
