Barcelona lower their asking price to €25 million for exit-bound midfielder; suitors still hesitating
Barcelona’s plans for the final stages of the summer transfer window appear increasingly clear: Marc Casado will leave, but finding a club willing to meet their valuation is proving to be a difficul...
Barcelona has lowered their asking price to €25 million for midfielder Marc Casado, but finding a suitable buyer remains challenging. The Barcelona newspaper MARCA reports that the club is seeking €25 million for the 22-year-old, yet no formal bids have met this valuation. Casado's agent, Jorge Mendes, has been actively pursuing potential clubs for his client, with interest coming mainly from Saudi Arabia and England.
However, Casado's desire to avoid a Middle Eastern career, along with no formal offers from Sunderland or Nottingham Forest, has left these clubs without a deal. Turkish clubs, including Besiktas, are now exploring the possibility of signing Casado, as his reduced involvement last season has affected his market value. Barcelona's current goal is to secure a deal near their €25 million asking price before the summer transfer window closes.
