"Marc Casado has endured a difficult season so far at FC Barcelona, with regular minutes not forthcoming, which in turn has affected his form. The 22-year-old La Masia graduate finds himself behind Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Gavi, Dani Olmo, and Marc Bernal in the pecking order. It has limited the Spaniard to only 1129 minutes across 25 appearances in all competitions for the Blaugrana this season, leading to question marks over his future at the club."
"Indeed, the Barcelona midfielder appears on a list of candidates drawn up by the country's Public Investment Fund (PIF) to strengthen the Saudi Pro League in the next transfer window. The intention of PIF, which controls the leading clubs in the Saudi league, would be to present Barcelona with a proposal exceeding €40 million in order to persuade the club to enter negotiations. Such figures would significantly benefit the club's finances and their fair play situation."
Marc Casado has struggled for regular minutes at FC Barcelona this season, which has affected his form. The 22-year-old La Masia graduate sits behind Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Gavi, Dani Olmo, and Marc Bernal in the midfield pecking order. He has logged just 1,129 minutes across 25 appearances in all competitions, raising questions about his future at the club. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) has identified Casado as a target and plans initial contact with his representatives. PIF aims to offer Barcelona more than €40 million and a substantially higher salary to secure the transfer. Barcelona want to renew his contract before season end as they consider him an important player despite limited minutes.
