Balde Trains Normally with Barcelona as Future Remains Uncertain

Alejandro Balde returned to Barcelona training normally today, Monday, after being excluded from the squad for the match against Elche in the opening of La Liga, while his future with the Catalan club remains uncertain.

Hans Flick has excluded Balde from the Elche match, explaining before the game that he spoke with the player and informed him that he is not fully fit, and that it is better for him to stay at home, with plans to discuss his situation later.

According to "Mundo Deportivo," Balde is awaiting a meeting with Flick to understand the coach's intentions towards him, before making a decision about his future, especially since he still wishes to continue with Barcelona, and will only consider leaving if he learns that the club does not rely on him.

The Spanish full-back participated in Monday's training session with a group of players who played few minutes or did not feature at all against Elche. Meanwhile, Marc Casado and Héctor Fort continued to train away from the group, awaiting clarity on their futures.

Balde has several offers to leave, including interest from Manchester United, but he is waiting to understand Barcelona's position directly before making any decisions about his future during the current transfer window.
