Why Barcelona signed Alonso and Bellerin on one-year deal

[ad_1]

Hector Bellerin and Marcos Alonso, two Spanish full backs who left their contracts with Chelsea and Arsenal, respectively, and moved to Barcelona on free transfers, were acquired by Barcelona this past summer as a result of two last-minute transfers.

After Sergino Dest left the team, Bellerin, a former La Masia trainee, rejoined it to give the team options at right-back. Xavi and his coaching staff appear to have lost faith in Jordi Alba, so Alonso has been brought in to strengthen the left-back position.

Both Bellerin and Alonso, on the other hand, have signed one-year contracts with Barcelona. According to the current agreement, the Spanish full-backs will be out of contract on June 30, 2023.

Catalunya Radio has now shed some light on why Barcelona only offered Bellerin and Alonso one-year contracts.

The Catalan heavyweights reportedly ran into late financial fair play issues that would have made adding Bellerin and Alonso to the roster challenging. They therefore agreed to give the pair one-year contracts with extremely low salaries.
