Egyptian Hamza Abdelkarim, the young forward of FC Barcelona, is linked with a move away from the Catalan club during the upcoming winter transfer window, amid rumors of a potential transfer to Como, led by Cesc Fàbregas.

Romano clarifies that the player's camp denies contact with the Italian club regarding a potential transfer, and there is no intention to leave FC Barcelona during the upcoming winter transfer window.

Hamza Abdelkarim has not yet succeeded in securing a starting position in coach Hans Flick's plans, raising speculation about a possible loan move to gain more playing time and experience. However, a departure in January is not considered a viable option.
