Casado’s Future at Barcelona in Question

Lack of Minutes Raises Concerns

The young midfielder, who has earned respect within La Masia, is not the top choice for Barcelona’s coach, Hansi Flick. This situation has led Casado to consider his options regarding his tenure at the club.

Interest from Other Clubs

According to AS, Casado is evaluating whether it might be time to seek opportunities elsewhere due to his limited playing time. Barcelona recently turned down an offer from Manchester United for the player last month. Additionally, there has been interest from teams in the Saudi Pro League.

New Representation and Market Options

Casado has recently signed with a new agent, Jorge Mendes, who has extensive experience with the Saudi market, especially following João Cancelo’s recent transfer to Barcelona. Mendes is actively receiving inquiries from clubs in the Saudi Pro League about the 22-year-old midfielder.

While the interest from Manchester United is still on the table, the possibility of following in the footsteps of players like Gabri Veiga (from Porto) and Aymeric Laporte (from Athletic Bilbao) is still under consideration, as both players have spent time in the Saudi league before returning to Europe this season.
