The future of Héctor Fort at FC Barcelona seems to be moving away from the first team. The right-back, one of La Masia's gems, did not play a single minute in the recent friendly against Vissel Kobe, sparking concerns about his role in Hansi Flick's squad. While Jules Koundé and Eric García took the spotlight in that position, Fort was sidelined, a clear sign that he is not included, at least for now, in the immediate plans of the German coach.

At 18 years old, the club believes that the best for his progress would be to find him a loan that guarantees him playing time and responsibility in a competitive environment. The sports management understands that keeping him without prominence would be a step back for his development, especially considering that he needs rhythm and experience to keep growing.

They do not want to hinder his progression

As reported by the newspaper AS, Fort is not the only case of uncertainty in the squad. In the left-back position, the situation could also lead to changes. Alejandro Balde is secure, but the strong emergence of Jofre Torrents could push Gerard Martín aside. Everything points to adjustments on both flanks.

The decision regarding Fort seems to have been made: the club is looking for a new temporary destination for him to not impede his progress. Although his departure will not be permanent, Barça wants him to find a team that allows him to show his full potential. The market is aware: Héctor Fort is available.
