Barça B: Goran Maric (Celta Vigo B)

Catalan sports paper Sport claims that Celta Vigo B forward Goran Maric (24) is the first choice to replace Barcelona Atlètic forward Guerra, who left the club earlier this week (read more here). Maric, who is a former Barcelona youth player, was last season the top goal scorer of the Spanish third division.

While it was believed that Maric is on his way to second divison team Deportivo Alavés, Celta Vigo sports director Ramón Martínez would now have proposed Barcelona a swap deal including Maric and Barcelona Atlètic central defender Marc Valiente (21), who can leave Barcelona this summer (read more here).

Galicia regional newspaper El Faro de Vigo claims that Alavés is still the main option for Maric, who would already have agreed personal terms with the club but Celta doesn't want to let the Serbian striker go for for free.

Maric, who is doing the pre-season with the first team of Celta but who has to leave this summer, has said in a reaction to Galicia regional newspaper La Voz de Galicia that he prefers to play in the Spanish second division: "I want to play in the second division and the club knows about my wishes."
