Hansi Flick has decided to change the work dynamics of six players whose future is pending resolution in the final stretch of the Barcelona market: Marc Casadó, Jofre Torrents, Héctor Fort, Tommy Marqués, Guille Fernández, and Toni Fernández. This decision comes after the injury of Roony Bardghji and with the club still needing to finalize several departures.

This situation affects the players who had participated with the first team during the preseason. Barcelona had included them in the squad led by Hansi Flick since the beginning of the training sessions, as officially confirmed by the club.

Hansi Flick defines Barcelona's discards

The most advanced case is that of Jofre Torrents, whose transfer to Ajax is practically sealed. The deal has been in progress for days, and only the final steps remain to make the transfer official.

Marc Casadó is also working separately while considering his next destination. The midfielder has received proposals from Saudi Arabia and is in contact with European clubs, thus he has not yet made a final decision.

The situation of Héctor Fort follows a similar scenario. The full-back needs to find a new team, and according to available information, there have been offers from Premier League clubs that consider a transfer.

Tommy Marqués represents another case that Barcelona aims to resolve before the market closes. The priority is to secure a sale, with a loan remaining an alternative if the economic offers do not meet the club's set conditions. Sporting Braga is among the interested teams.

Guille Fernández and Toni Fernández also seek destinations

Guille Fernández and Toni Fernández form the last group of players who must depart from Hansi Flick's usual routine. Both have multiple suitors, and Barcelona is considering both transfer deals and loan options.

The presence of these six players in the initial training sessions was not exceptional: the club included them among the players of Barça Atlètic and lower categories who trained alongside the first team during the early weeks of preseason.

This change comes after Hansi Flick gradually reintegrated the internationals and had a broader squad. Therefore, Barcelona enters the final phase of defining the group with the aim of reducing numbers and finalizing ongoing deals.

Bardghji's injury has also forced extra precautions in the daily planning, but it does not alter the need to resolve the cases of Casadó, Torrents, Fort, Marqués, Guille Fernández, and Toni Fernández.

The next step will be to finalize the departures in the following days. Jofre Torrents is closest to being official, while Marc Casadó, Héctor Fort, Tommy Marqués, Guille Fernández, and Toni Fernández are waiting for definitive proposals; with these transactions, the group that Hansi Flick will lead at the start of the competition will be finalized.
