Former Bordeaux manager and current manager of the Greece national team Gustavo Poyet has spoken with Sport about the qualities of Barcelona's 'next' signing Jules Kounde.
"Kounde is a player who loves to go up with the ball. And then they then he has the ability to track back quickly," Poyet said.
"I also liked him, wants centre-backs who are daring with the ball, who can break lines.
"Apart from being powerful, Koundé also has a good understanding of the game.
Poyet adds that "Kounde has the ability to play at right-back, but I'd prefer him to keep playing at centre-back."
According to reports, Barcelonapoye have reached a full agreement with Sevilla for the transfer of Kounde.
The player is expected to be announced as a Barca signing in the coming hours.
