Casado Pressured Barcelona at Deadline
The article details Barcelona's attempt to part ways with their player Marc Casadó during the summer transfer window. The goal was to either loan him out or sell him easily, but he strongly resisted any departure attempts. The club considered alternatives, such as transferring him to Bayer Leverkusen with a reduced price from 40 million to 20 million euros, but the deal was halted due to the departure of an official at the German club. They also offered him moves to Real Betis and Celta Vigo, but he declined. Ultimately, he was loaned to Deportivo La Coruña until the end of the season, after coach Antonio Hidalgo expressed interest in his project and explained the importance of the central midfielder position in his team. Deportivo also rejected an offer that included an obligatory purchase option for 30 million euros, so the player moved on loan only.
