The Future of Casado Sparks Controversy in Barcelona Amid Growing European Interest
Tuesday 19-08-2025
Barcelona is facing an internal dilemma regarding the future of young midfielder Marc Casado, amid interest from several European clubs to sign him during the final days of the summer transfer window. Although the club wishes to retain him, there is a willingness to allow him to leave if he decides to do so.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Sport", Casado is attracting significant interest from clubs in England, led by West Ham, Wolverhampton, Bournemouth, and Tottenham, in addition to Atlético Madrid and Chelsea. Real Betis has also expressed a desire to negotiate, but the financial demands complicate the deal.

Despite these offers, the player has not shown any desire to leave so far, as he prefers to stay and fight for his place in the team, even though it is difficult for him to get real playing minutes, especially with coach Hans Flick relying on names like De Jong, Pedri, Gavi, Olmo, and Firmin in midfield.

Barcelona values Casado at no less than 30 million euros, but they will not open negotiations unless the player shows a clear desire to leave. Until now, Casado remains determined to continue his journey at Camp Nou, at least until January, when circumstances may change completely.
