Mars Casado’s future at FC Barcelona remains uncertain as he might leave before the summer transfer window closes.

Reports indicate that talks are ongoing with his agent Jorge Mendes, with no final decision made yet.

The 22-year-old midfielder has received approaches from clubs in both Europe and Saudi Arabia, although it is unclear whether he has picked his next club or plans to stay at Barcelona.

The situation is complicated by Frenkie de Jong’s knee injury, sidelining him for the season’s start. Keeping Casado would offer extra midfield depth for coach Hansi Flick.

However, Barcelona remain open to moving the La Masia graduate, given the stiff competition for midfield places from players like Pedri, Gavi, and Marc Bernal.

From the club’s view, there is a challenge balancing having sufficient options amid De Jong’s absence and potentially securing a strong offer for Casado, especially when De Jong returns.

The player’s preference is also crucial, with upcoming discussions with Mendes expected to provide clarity about his immediate future.

No firm decision has been made yet, but with interest from both European and Saudi clubs, Casado’s situation remains an important matter for Barcelona as the window progresses.
