Manchester United Joins the Race to Sign Barcelona Star
Wednesday 28-01-2026
The English club Manchester United has strongly entered the race to sign the young Spanish player Marc Casado, a promising midfielder from Barcelona, to strengthen their midfield after continuous monitoring of his situation with the Catalan team, according to the 'Fichajes' website.

The player is experiencing a period of uncertainty in Hans Flick's lineup due to his limited appearances this season, having only started nine league matches, prompting the English club to consider making an enticing offer that guarantees him a pivotal role at Old Trafford.

Manchester United faces competition from Atletico Madrid for Casado's signature, but the economic power of the Red Devils gives them an advantage. The club is looking for a midfielder capable of organizing play and providing balance, which the young player offers with his style derived from Barcelona's school.

Despite interest from other clubs, Casado has maintained his loyal stance towards Barcelona, affirming his desire to compete for every minute he plays in the club's jersey. However, his name remains on Manchester United's priority list, alongside other players like Adam Wharton and Joao Gomes, with the final decision linked to the coaching staff's confidence in the player for the next season.

The fate of the deal is expected to be decided by the end of the season, after evaluating Casado's actual role at Barcelona, while Manchester United prepares for what could be one of the standout summer transfers, considering the Catalan club's desire to sell and the player's anticipation for a chance at consistent playing time.
