Barcelona is reportedly preparing a five-year contract for the promising young player Toni Fernandez to secure his long-term future at the club.
According to Spanish media, the club wants to keep Fernandez committed as he started pre-season training under coach Hansi Flick. Fernandez is working hard to prove his abilities, but competition for attacking roles in the 2026-27 season is intense.
Flick is expected to monitor Fernandez closely during pre-season before deciding his next steps. One possibility under consideration is a loan move to gain more playing time and experience outside of Barça Atlètic.
The club’s transfer activity also affects the situation: Karim Adeyemi and Anthony Gordon have joined the squad, and negotiations to sign Julián Álvarez are ongoing. This may delay any final decision about Fernandez's placement.
Barcelona remains keen on retaining Fernandez while evaluating options for his development, with a loan seen as a valuable step amid the club’s strengthened attacking lineup.
