The young talent of Barcelona from Croatia can wear the jersey of another team for at least one season. "Sport" and "El Mundo Deportivo" claim that the temporary career stop for Alen Halilović could be the Chichon Sporting team. Returning to the Spanish elite division after the break, the Asturian club agreed to meet the most important condition for Barcelona - the Croatian must play at least 60 percent of all official matches. Similar conditions were negotiated with the German team Hamburger SV, but they could not guarantee enough playing time for A. Halilović even though the rental price was very low - only 800 thousand euros. If the Croatian had not played the required 60 percent of matches, the rental fee would have been over a million and a half euros. "On Friday, we'll go to Chichon. We already gave consent to the representatives of Sporting," said A. Halilović's agent Zoran Stojadinović to the radio station Cadena Cope. The Croatian will move to Sporting for at least one season, but the Asturian club should not have the option to buy the player. Barcelona bought A. Halilović last year for 2.2 million euros from Dinamo Zagreb, but the main youth academy team of the Catalan club said goodbye to the second division after the season. According to Barcelona's management, A. Halilović would improve better by playing in the elite league.
