Barcelona face a critical deadline as the futures of two of their La Masia stars, Toni and Guille Fernandez, remain uncertain. The 18-year-olds, who have been part of the club's next generation, have not yet signed new contracts that run until 2027. Mundo Deportivo reports that interest from various clubs, both in Spain and Europe, has grown, prompting Barcelona to explore the possibility of letting both players go.
Initially, Barcelona aimed to retain Guille, with a verbal agreement for a contract renewal, though this deal has not been formalized. Guille's development was affected by injury last season, preventing him from becoming a regular for the reserve team. Toni is also attracting interest from clubs across Italy, Germany, and England, with Aston Villa showing the strongest interest.
Unlike Guille, Toni has previously turned down lucrative offers to stay with Barcelona, but this summer, his situation has evolved, and he is nearing the end of his tenure with the reserve team.
