Barcelona star could join Atlético this summer

class="wp-block-paragraph">A member of the midfield ranks at Barcelona could be in line for a transfer to La Liga rivals Atlético Madrid over the weeks ahead.

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">This comes amid confirmation that the Rojiblancos maintain an ongoing interest in the signature of Marc Casadó.

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">Youngster Casadó is of course widely expected to bring a close to his stint on the books of Barcelona this summer. Surplus to requirements in the eyes of Hansi Flick, the 22-year-old is likely to be shipped out to raise funds for reinforcements.

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">To date, Saudi Arabia has been the landing spot most strongly pushed for Casadó in the media.

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">As alluded to above, though, the Spanish international could yet stay put in his home country, with one of La Liga’s other leading clubs.

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">As per a report from Mundo Deportivo:

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">‘One of the teams closely monitoring his situation are Atlético de Madrid. The club’s sporting department highly values Casadó, believing he could fit perfectly into their style of play.’

>

class="wp-block-paragraph">The midfielder himself is also said to be open to the prospect of a Metropolitano switch.
