Adriano: first option for Mallorca

Jesús Carrillo
With Dani Alves suspended, Pep Guardiola is going to have find somebody to replace him. Adriano Correia is the most obvious option to stand in for his compatriot in the right back position.

With Dani Alves unavailable against Mallorca, the FC Barcelona coach already said after the game with Athletic Bilbao that “we have Adriano in the squad, and so the normal thing would be for him to play in Palma next Saturday. However, we will have to look at all the options”. 

8 league matches 
The versatile Brazilian has played eight league games so far, in which he played the full 90 in two (Deportivo and Racing Santander). In the other games he has come off the bench. Of these eight games involving Adriano, Barcelona have won seven. 

Cup scorer 
The former Sevilla man scored his first goal for his new club in the Copa del Rey at Almeria’s Juegos Mediterráneo. His goal opened the scoring in that game, in a competition in which Guardiola has used the Brazilian fairly regularly, with six appearances in eight games. Adriano has also been involved in three Champions League games, twice as a starter, and provided an assist for one goal.
