"What I'm most excited about is having a very long career and many years at Barça. There are different ways to get to the first team. There are players who skip many stages and do well, we are talking about Lamine, Cubarsí, many others. And I have been burning stages little by little, without skipping any, even repeating, I remember, in the Juvenil B."
"That has been key to being able to reach the first team. It has helped me to learn things in every situation, to keep improving as a player until I get to now. Everything has helped me. In cases like Fermín or mine we have had to be more patient, work a little harder or burn more stages, as I said."
Marc Casado has been subject to transfer speculation following reduced playing time at Barcelona, with only 14 starts in 31 appearances this season. However, the midfielder has publicly stated his desire for a lengthy career at Camp Nou. Casado reflects on his gradual progression through Barcelona's youth academy, contrasting his patient development with players like Lamine Yamal and Cubarsí who advanced more quickly. He emphasizes that his methodical rise, including repeating youth levels, provided valuable learning experiences. Casado acknowledges different pathways to the first team exist, but stresses the importance of reaching and contributing to the senior squad regardless of the route taken.
