Barcelona winger hoping for bigger role in team amid several offers on the table | OneFootball

Roony Bardghji was a strategic signing made by FC Barcelona in the summer, roping him in for a minimal fee of only €2.5 million with an eye on the future.

The Swedish international’s positive impression during pre-season ensured that he immediately became a part of the first-team dynamics.

However, with Lamine Yamal being the permanent starter on the right flank, regular minutes were always going to be difficult.

Despite that, Bardghji made a good impression on the rare chances that he got in the team, but his situation has gotten a lot direr in recent weeks.

Bardghji wants more prominence

Now, according to SPORT, Bardghji approaches the final stretch of the season with a clear objective: to establish himself at Barcelona.

After a promising start, the Swedish international has gradually lost prominence in Flick’s rotations. Nevertheless, he hopes to receive more opportunities during the decisive weeks of the campaign, particularly as fatigue begins to affect some of the players.

Barcelona’s plan for Bardghji’s first season was essentially developmental: to adapt to the team and gradually grow in importance. That process progressed as expected until January, although his participation has declined since then.

His most recent start came in January in a UEFA Champions League match against Slavia Prague. He has not played since February 28, when Flick gave him the final 18 minutes against Villarreal.

Plenty of interest, no shortage of commitment

Despite the lack of playing time, Bardghji has never wavered in his commitment to Barcelona. He rejected other offers in order to wear the Blaugrana shirt and made it clear when he signed that his intention was to remain with the first team rather than leave on loan.

There were chances for him to leave on loan in January, but neither the player nor the club explored those avenues.

Now, as per the report, several notable European clubs have already contacted Barcelona to inquire about him.

Two teams from the Portuguese top flight and at least one club from the Bundesliga have explored the possibility of a loan move that would give him a much larger role.

For the moment, Bardghji himself is not interested in that path. Everything may depend on how the remainder of the season unfolds, as he hopes to obtain more minutes during the closing phase.
