Valencia tried to sign Hector Fort before the winter transfer deadline, but FC Barcelona rejected any possibility of the young full-back leaving. The Catalan club decided to maintain its squad without significant changes despite the interest from several teams in some of its players, and Fort was one of the names on the table in the final days of the transfer window.

Facing an urgent need to strengthen their defense after Thierry Correia's serious injury, Valencia sought a loan for the young Barcelona player. The Valencia board considered Fort a viable option to provide depth at right-back, a position where they had few alternatives after the absence of their starter. However, Barça's response was clear: the academy player would not leave in winter.

Flick did not want to lose players

Although Hector Fort has not had a leading role under Hansi Flick's orders, Barcelona considers his development important within the future project. Despite Jules Koundé establishing himself as the first choice at right-back, and with the presence of other more experienced players, the coaching staff preferred to keep the young defender in the squad rather than loan him out.

Ultimately, with Barcelona's refusal, Valencia opted to secure the signing of Max Aarons from Bournemouth to strengthen their defense. Nonetheless, Fort's future remains uncertain as the Catalan club aims to sign a new right-back in the summer. If that deal materializes, the young defender could seek more playing time, either through a loan or a sale with a buy-back option.
