18-year-old Barcelona midfielder keeping summer plans on hold amid Spain World Cup hope | OneFootball

Several FC Barcelona players have already got their call-ups for the upcoming World Cup from their respective national teams, while others are still waiting for the final lists to be published.

As a result, some players are still hopeful of getting their ticket to the World Cup, and one such player is the Blaugrana midfielder Marc Bernal, who is in the running to get a spot in the Spanish national team for the World Cup, which is set to be announced this Monday.

Meanwhile, as SPORT has reported, the Spaniard appeared in an interview with Catalunya Radio and made it clear that he still believes he can make the final squad for the tournament:

In fact, Bernal admitted that he is not even making plans for the summer yet while waiting for the final squad announcement from the Spanish national team coach:

Bernal also took the opportunity to once again thank Flick for the faith that the German coach has shown in him since the very beginning of his Barcelona journey:

“I owe him my life. He trusted me when I was only 17 years old, and I will always be grateful to him.”

Talking about Barcelona’s season overall, the 18-year-old midfielder admitted that the team is satisfied with what it achieved, although the Champions League elimination still remains a disappointment:

Hopefully, Marc Bernal will get the call-up for the World Cup, which would undoubtedly be a great learning experience for him, and also one of the major milestones in his career.
