Marc Casadó has established himself as one of the great revelations of the season at FC Barcelona. The brutal 'irruption' of the youth player into the first team, driven by injuries, has caused a sensation within the club and the Barcelona fans, where night after night they confirm that the footballer is the missing piece in the 'puzzle' of the Barça midfield.
The player is a regular in Hansi Flick's line-ups and, as of today, he could already have the label of 'untouchable'. The player has accumulated 897 minutes in 12 games in which he has provided 4 assists, and, at the moment, it seems difficult to see him out of the starting eleven despite the returns of players such as Frenkie de Jong, Gavi and Fermín López, who could also play in the German's double pivot.
Casadó also changes the transfer market plans
However, Casadó's 'explosion' would not only 'affect' the planning of the Barça coach, but also of the sports management, where they have decided to put the possible signing of Joshua Kimmich on 'stand by'. According to 'El Nacional.cat', the German, who was on the Blaugrana agenda last summer, is no longer a priority for the club, and Marc's presence in the squad would have a lot to do with it.
The arrival of the German to Barcelona continued to appear as an option on the horizon, since his contract with Bayern Munich ends in June and there is still no news about his renewal. The player could arrive as a free agent and Flick would look favourably on his signing, although it would be far from being a necessity 'thanks' to Casadó's great present.
This scenario also allows the club to make significant savings because, although Kimmich could arrive at zero cost, they would have to make a huge outlay to pay him the salary he demands and a stellar signing bonus. Meanwhile, clubs such as Manchester City, Arsenal and PSG have reportedly begun to 'close in' on the 29-year-old German, whose future seems to be far from La Liga.
