The young player Drew informed head coach Hansi Flick of his decision to leave FC Barcelona in the near future, with the activation of the €6 million release clause in his contract, according to journalist Carlos Monfort.

According to the same source, Drew has several official offers from clubs in both the German and English leagues, which encouraged him to decide to leave in search of a new step in his professional career outside of Spain.

Barcelona was planning to renew the player's contract as soon as he turned 18, as part of their efforts to retain the most promising talents within the club's academy. However, things did not go as planned.

Monfort pointed out that the sporting director Deco was unable to finalize the renewal file on time, which opened the door for other European clubs to step in and decide the player's future away from Camp Nou.
