During the winter transfer window, a loan departure was even considered due to his limited playing time, but the situation has now changed radically. Manager Hansi Flick spoke with the teenage midfielder in January and promised more minutes, and he has kept his word. An improved contract for Bernal? Now, according to MARCA, Bernal's progress has led Barcelona to begin considering an improvement to his contract.

"I am in a good moment, but I think the best is yet to come. Physically, I am fine , I needed regularity and the sensations are good," he added. "It's not that I'm bothered by people saying that I get injured a lot, but I don't agree with that either. I've had injuries due to trauma, which is something I can't control because it's part of the sport."

The truth is that everything is happening very fast for me, I almost do not have time to realise what I am doing, but I am very happy, always very proud to be part of the club of my life and if I can keep gaining minutes and experience, I am delighted,

"Only when we don't have the talent at home should Barça be able to go to the market and attract the best talent. Like Harry Kane: a player who connects with teammates, with talent and an eye for goal. We are working on it," he said.

Referees and match officials have been in the spotlight once again this week after some controversial decisions in Barcelona's defeats to Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey and Girona in La Liga. Yet it's been happening all season long and not just in La Liga. Games across Europe are often being overshadowed by big decisions that have left fans fuming.

Then there's the issue of the Sports Law, which I don't follow, that there's a three-year statute of limitations. I've advocated for much longer statutes of limitations for these types of crimes," he added, airing his grievances.

Barcelona will head into the La Liga match against Levante this weekend on the back of a 2-1 defeat to Girona away from home in the league. It came after a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid away from home in the first leg of the Copa del Rey tie, which followed a 3-0 victory over Real Mallorca at Spotify Camp Nou.

Lamine Yamal may have faced a frustrating night against Girona, but the Barcelona winger continues to prove that setbacks do not define him. The teenager missed a penalty against Girona recently, yet, instead of shrinking under the spotlight, the Barcelona star was continuously trying to change the game. At the start of the second half, Yamal came out with clear intent. He repeatedly attacked down the right flank, looking to make up for his earlier mistake.

While the performance was not at its best, the headlines were dominated by the controversial refereeing once again, as Girona's winner should have been chalked off for a foul on Jules Kounde in the buildup, but was overlooked by the referee and the VAR. Barcelona outraged As such, Mundo Deportivo reports that there is serious anger and indignation within Barcelona over the clear stamp by Claudio Echeverri on Kounde before Girona's decisive goal, especially when compared with similar incidents in the past.
