"Newcastle could use Casado Newcastle have not given up on their pursuit of the player, and they could return for him in 2026 if he is made available. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Newcastle have quality midfielders like Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes. However, they could use more depth in that area of the pitch. The 21-year-old midfielder could be the ideal long-term investment for them."
"Graeme Bailey said on TBR: Casado is a really interesting name to keep an eye on heading into 2026. Newcastle do need and want something extra in midfield, and he is someone who does appeal. It remains to be seen if he is attainable in the near future, but if he is available, then Newcastle are likely to be in the mix."
Newcastle United made an enquiry to sign 21-year-old Marc Casado from Barcelona during the summer, but Barcelona were reluctant to sanction his departure. Newcastle have not abandoned interest and could return for Casado in 2026 if Barcelona make him available. Casado is a defensive midfielder who would add physicality and defensive cover, providing depth behind Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes and allowing creative teammates more freedom. Newcastle strengthened their attack in the summer and are competing in the UEFA Champions League while targeting top-four finishes and regular contention for major trophies. Barcelona rate Casado highly and have no pressing reason to sell.
