The strange case of Douglas: The 'Bobo' of Spain.

Barcelona loanee Douglas has been quite a news for sometime now. Let's see what Bobo suffered recently.


After being bought for 5 million from Sao Polo in 2014 which not only surprised La Liga pundits but the man himself "I though it was a joke" he expressed. Douglas Pereira remained a mysterious case for Culers.

From 2014 to 2016 he just appeared for like 8 times. 320 minutes it counts to. He expectedly failed to impress. While the likes of Aleix Vidal and Montonya too could never replace Dani Alves ..Douglas never looked like a solution.


The loan of Douglas

And after a lot of struggle from thereon Barca found a place for him(that too not permanent!) as Liga clubs repeatedly said no to his offer and wage demands.  Sporting gijon came to his rescue but no the man refused to sign papers as the people present at the Barca officials on his paper signing day revealed that he looked dejected. He didn't wanted to leave the best club in Spain and was neither signing his papers nor was leaving the offices.
Some officials finally convinced him to sign and move on for his own good.


An injury to lord

Lord is what social media called him(Zlatanic appearance,dismal performance).
Coming to our point. On Friday media reports circulated that Douglas has got an injury. But he's Douglas and nothing is usual with him...the injury to his back came after he slept in an awkward position during the team's bus trip. Yes you heard it right.


Today he told media "I'll be playing, I'm fine". We hope he does against his parent club on Saturday afternoon...See you at El molinon.
