The Txuri-Urdin team has squeezed very hard in the last few hours and has been ahead of Borussia Dortmund in the race to get the Barça side. The operation is not yet closed, but talks have advanced to the point that its exit can be considered imminent. This Wednesday's day has been especially important to unhing his future. As SPORT has revealed, Deco has met with Arturo Canales and Fernando Solanas, Héctor Fort's agents, to know first-hand the proposals that the footballer had and move forward in an exit that all parties have been taking for probable for days. During the match, the representatives conveyed to the sports director that the Real Sociedad option had gained a lot of strength and that Fort was very close to heading to San Sebastian. Borussia Dortmund had also squeezed to incorporate him, but the Donostia team has moved quickly and has managed to take advantage. As this newspaper has learned, after finishing the meeting Deco has contacted Erik Bretos, football director of the Real Sociedad, to move forward directly with the operation and start working on the documentation. Details still remain to be resolved and the agreement is not completely closed, but the parties are already working with the will to be able to complete it soon. One of the keys to the negotiation is in the formula chosen by Barça. The Barcelona club wants to transfer 50% of Héctor Fort's rights for about ten million euros and keep the other half, a formula that would allow him to obtain a significant income now without losing control over a possible revaluation of the lateral. Barça still has a lot of confidence in Fort. His departure does not respond to a lack of conviction about his qualities, but to the current situation of the staff and the possibility of obtaining an income without completely detaching himself from his rights.   submitted by   /u/FrostyAmbassador1193 [link]   [comments]
