Marc Casado is the next player to leave Barcelona this summer!

Press reports indicate that Barcelona is close to bidding farewell to one of the most prominent graduates of La Masia, who made his debut with the team under Spanish coach Xavi Hernandez, and was a key part of German coach Hansi Flick's options.

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the player will not stay at Barcelona but will find another good opportunity this summer, but his future has not yet been decided, with Saudi and English interest.

Fabrizio Romano clarifies the news about Mark Casado!

The future of Marc Casadó remains uncertain, as agent Jorge Mendes continues to explore the market in search of the most suitable move for his client. Meanwhile, negotiations with Al-Hilal have yet to reach an advanced stage, with both sides still far from a final agreement.

Casadó is under contract with Barcelona until June 2028, and recent reports suggest that the Catalan club is demanding around €50 million to sanction his departure. That valuation has reportedly prompted Al-Hilal to reconsider their stance, leading them to evaluate alternative midfield targets.

Although the player is said to have given initial approval to a switch to the Saudi club, Barcelona's steep financial demands now stand as the primary obstacle. As a result, Casadó's future hangs in the balance, with several scenarios still possible in the coming days.

In a related development, Barcelona are also assessing the situation of another young talent, Unai Hernández—referred to in some circles as Ronny Perdguí—who is widely expected to leave during the current transfer window. The club are reportedly considering either a loan move or a permanent transfer that would include a buy-back clause, allowing them to retain some control over his long-term future.
