Barcelona are moving closer to parting ways with midfielder Marc Casado during the summer transfer window, as the Catalan club aim to clarify his future before the start of preparations for the new season.
According to SPORT reports, Barcelona will begin preparations for the 2026/27 season on July 13. However, Casado may not be part of the group that will return for training.
Currently, the midfielder is scheduled to undergo pre-season medicals alongside names such as Wojciech Szczesny, Alejandro Balde and Marc Bernal, but his situation is rapidly developing towards a departure from Camp Nou.
The product of the famous La Masia academy has admitted that he will struggle to secure regular first-team minutes next season, as competition in the midfield has increased significantly. For this reason, both the player and the club are ready to consider a departure this summer.

In recent weeks, the most likely destination for Casado has been Monaco, with reports suggesting that the footballer has already reached a personal agreement with the French club.
However, the transfer has not yet been finalized. According to sources close to the matter, agent Jorge Mendes has decided to temporarily suspend the operation, as there is a possibility that Casado will be included in a wider deal related to Barcelona’s efforts to transfer Joao Cancelo from Al Hilal.
The coming days are expected to be decisive for the future of the Spanish midfielder, as Barcelona leaders are working to find the most favorable solution for all parties.
