"There were numerous offers sent to the offices for the Swedish winger this past January as he was seen as an attractive option on the market. The fact that he had barely been used by Hansi Flick drew the attention of top European clubs, who asked Barcelona about a loan move for the second half of the season. However, the response from Flick and sporting director, Deco, was clear: the player would stay."
"In six of those games, he did not play a single minute. Out of 1,170 total minutes played this year, he has accumulated just 192, 16% of the total. So far this year, he has started twice, one of them in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup, when Lamine was carrying a knock, and the 20-year-old took his opportunity with a goal and two ass"
FC Barcelona signed Joao Cancelo on loan in January to bolster the first team, while Marc-Andre ter Stegen moved to Girona on loan seeking regular game time. Several fringe players attracted winter loan interest, with Roony Bardghji receiving multiple offers because he had been used sparingly under Hansi Flick. Flick and sporting director Deco refused to allow a midseason exit to preserve attacking depth in case of injuries. Bardghji opted to remain, training with senior players and absorbing instructions, yet his competitive involvement has been limited: one start in the last 11 matches and just 192 of 1,170 minutes this year (16%).
