The offer that Manchester City would be willing to make to leave Barça without Pau Cubarsí

If there is a player from FC Barcelona whose potential seems to be soaring, it is Pau Cubarsí. The 17-year-old defender has gradually established himself as one of the pillars of the Blaugrana's defensive line, becoming a more tenacious defender, showcasing important tactical intelligence and speed to correct and anticipate actions in the backline, and providing the necessary tools for the Barcelona team to execute, among other things, the lethal offside tactic with which Barça has been able to effectively nullify rival attacks.

Moreover, in the offensive aspect, Pau Cubarsí is developing a particularly highlighted attribute in his current game: the great ability he has to start plays from the back with controlled possession, being a player who often makes good decisions to move the ball from defense to attack with very good passes, particularly over long distances.

Given this evident growth in his level of play, it's not surprising that Pau Cubarsí is on the radar of several top European teams, especially those that follow a recognizable style of play, based on building from the backline with very technical defenders. An attribute that is not so common among current defenders.

Manchester City is after Pau Cubarsí

One of those teams, apparently, is Manchester City, which under the guidance of Pep Guardiola boasts high-quality defenders in this aspect such as Josko Gvardiol, John Stones, and Rubén Dias, and is interested in the services of Pau Cubarsí. The 'Sky Blues' apparently have in mind to make an economically attractive offer for the Estanyol native.

As reported on the website 'Fichajes.com', Manchester City would be willing to offer around €70 million to secure Pau Cubarsí from FC Barcelona. This amount seems quite attractive for a young player whose market value, according to 'Transfermarkt', currently stands at around 40 million.

Now, with this in mind, it will be interesting to see if FC Barcelona is willing to entertain offers for one of their most promising 'gems', someone who seems destined to become a stellar name not only in the present, as he has shown, but also with a projection towards the future. Pau Cubarsí, who in his most recent renewal (until 2027), had a release clause set at €500 million, possibly to deter any interest from other teams in acquiring his services, has the potential to become one of the best defenders of his generation and make a mark in football. Will he achieve it? Only time will tell.
