Marc Casado has no shortage of suitors ahead of expected Barcelona exit | OneFootball

FC Barcelona are expected to have quite a busy 2026 summer transfer window, in which there are not only going to be some exciting new additions, but also several departures. In recent days, one player who has frequently been linked with a move away from the Catalan club has been the midfielder Marc Casado.

The Spaniard is a La Masia product and is a fan of the Blaugrana club. However, his playing time reduced significantly last season with the returns of Marc Bernal and Gavi from their injuries. Things are not expected to improve next season as well, as Hansi Flick has seven players for three midfield positions.

As a result, a departure seems to be the best way forward for Casado’s career. Luckily, there are several top sides from around the world interested in him.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Atletico Madrid is a club that particularly likes the player, mainly with his ability to win back the ball in midfield and to put accurate through balls to attackers. However, Diego Simeone’s approval would be needed before the Colchoneros can make a move for him.

Another appealing opportunity for the midfielder would be the Saudi side Al-Hilal, who can make a very lucrative offer for the La Masia graduate. However, with this move, he would not be playing at the highest level of European football. This move can also make it easier for Barcelona to get Joao Cancelo.

Meanwhile, several clubs from the Premier League are also monitoring the player, most notable of these being Manchester United. Similarly, the Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen are also reportedly interested in him.

Thus, Marc Casado, who has already agreed to leave Barcelona, has no shortage of options, and hopefully, he would pick a side where he can continue growing and playing at the highest level for years to come.
