The Barletta striker received a survey from Coritiba in recent days. However, the Corinthians did not want to open a conversation with the people of Paraná. The denial came at the request of coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo, who tested the player on the left wing and keeps him for the rest of the season.
Without space at Corinthians, Barletta have played just two games since being signed by the club. Luxemburgo has opted for basic boys in the starting lineup such as Adson, Pedro and Guilherme Biro. However, the coach sees great potential in the athlete and has begun testing him on the left side.
The coach sees Barletta with sufficient technique and speed for the position, but it is enough for him to evolve in marking. With little space at Corinthians, improvisation could be a new chance for the attacking midfielder, who still hasn’t convinced himself to play more in the offensive sector.
Also, another reason for the attacker’s position change is to have an immediate reserve for Bidu. The incumbent has won Luxemburgo’s trust, but his backup, Fábio Santos, has yet to win it. The veteran is experiencing a moment of instability at the club, as well as his contract expiring at the end of the year.
“I spoke to Barletta, I spoke to Vanderlei and that loan possibility doesn’t exist. He’s an athlete we believe in a lot, we made a recent investment. He was the revelation of Brazil’s most important state. He’s an athlete who, even if in the last few games he hasn’t been exploited, he has trained and he is available, it is a matter of opportunity and he will arrive at a more opportune moment” said Alessandro, coach of Corinthians.
