Chelsea told how much to pay for Marc Casado as Barcelona slap hefty price tag on midfield star amid interest from big-spending Blues

Marc Casado-spain-barcelona-20241023

Barcelona’s youth prospect Marc Casado has emerged as a subject of serious interest from Chelsea, with the Premier League giants reportedly tracking the midfielder ahead of a potential bid. The club's La Masia graduate, who has recently seen limited game time, could be on the move if Barcelona receive a significant offer during the ongoing summer transfer window.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Although Casado extended his contract with Barcelona until 2028, the club is reportedly open to negotiating his departure, as revealed by Sport. While the Catalan side values Casado’s abilities and future potential, the competition for spots in midfield and the financial need to offload assets have put the youngster in the shop window.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The report mentions that Barcelona have set a price tag of €50 million (£43m/$59m) for Casado, well above his estimated market value of €30m (£26m/$35m). Chelsea, known for aggressive investment in youth and long-term talents, are understood to be keen on Casado, whose profile fits their ongoing squad-building philosophy. However, they’re not alone, with Atletico Madrid also believed to have inquired about the 20-year-old’s availability.

TELL ME MORE

Even if a suitable offer arrives, the midfielder’s personal preference may be a stumbling block. Casado has deep ties with Barcelona, having come through their academy and consistently expressed his passion for the club. His willingness to part ways with the Catalan giants remains unclear, and any potential transfer would require his approval.

DID YOU KNOW?

Casado began the previous season on a high note, featuring regularly and earning plaudits for his performances. However, once Frenkie de Jong returned from injury in February, Casado found himself pushed out of the rotation. In addition to De Jong’s importance in midfield, Hansi Flick is also aiming to elevate the status of another La Masia graduate, Marc Bernal. The coaching staff remain confident in Bernal’s ability to become a world-class defensive midfielder, and Flick appears committed to offering him more chances moving forward following his return to fitness from a serious knee injury.

WHAT NEXT?

Despite Barcelona’s €50m asking price, Casado’s release clause remains set at €100m (£86m/$118m), an amount unlikely to be triggered given his current squad status. Moreover, the Blaugrana's engine room is brimming with talent, making it increasingly difficult for fringe players like Casado to break in. With Gavi, Pedri, Dani Olmo, and Fermin Lopez already jostling for starting roles, squad competition is at an all-time high. Hence, a meaningful opportunity might convince Casado to depart, which will be the right step for his development.
