Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in the transfer of Marc Casado (22 years old), the midfielder from Barcelona. Napoli, the champion of Italy, is also on the line.
The young Marc Casado could leave the Catalan club as early as January, in case of an offer that satisfies the officials at Camp Nou. Barcelona's management may consider selling him to alleviate the club's persistent financial difficulties. They will also take into account the current state of Hansi Flick's midfield and the fitness of the players.
Barcelona are considering selling Marc Casado
Deco and management resisted temptation in the summer and kept Casado despite interest from other clubs. But with Marc Bernal recovering from a serious knee ligament tear, the club's position could change at the start of the year.
Arsenal and Chelsea, two of the most important clubs in the Premier League, are considering the transfer of Casado. Meanwhile, Italian champions Napoli, who are also looking for midfield reinforcements, see the 22-year-old as the ideal footballer, according to sportal.hu.

It is very likely that a bidding war for Casado's signature will break out in the winter. The young footballer has a market share worth 30 million euros, according to the specialist website transfermarkt.com. He still has a contract with the Catalans until 2028.
In the current season, he played in 12 games, during which he provided a decisive assist. He also has two games for the Spanish national team.
