Two exit-bound Barcelona stars train separately to avoid Roony Bardghji situation

Two Barcelona players, Hector Fort and Marc Casado, are undergoing separate training regimens to circumvent the potential sell-off of one of their own, Roony Bardghji. The Swedish winger has been earmarked for departure in the summer, either through a loan or permanent transfer. However, Bardghji's injury threatens that plan. The injury sidelining Bardghji has led Barça to instruct Fort and Casado to train individually.

Both young talents are anticipated to depart the club this summer and have been urged to seek out new teams for the upcoming season.

The club's decision to have the two players train separately is perceived as a precautionary measure, aiming to sidestep any risks or disappointments while their futures remain uncertain in the final stretch of the transfer window. Despite having been part of Hansi Flick's team during pre-season, Fort and Casado seem to have failed to impress the German coach enough to warrant a spot in the first team.

Fort's situation is particularly precarious. The talented player could have secured a place in the Barça first team if he had arrived at a different time. However, competition from established players like Jules Kounde and Eric Garcia, along with a promising youngster like Xavi Espart, makes his chances slim. Similarly, Casado had a stellar first season under Flick, but his second season was less successful.

Given the midfield depth at Barça and the arrival of Rodri, staying at the club is no longer a viable option for Casado. He would likely benefit from a new environment with guaranteed playing time to aid his development. The following weeks will be crucial for both players as they seek out new clubs, and it remains to be seen if they persist with their individual training until a move transpires.
