chelsea Barcelona could have an easier route to signing Marc Casado in the summer transfer window.

The Blues were one of the clubs who tried to sign the midfielder last summer.

In July 2025, Sport Witness Covered a big report from Spain That Chelsea put pressure on him to sign him. At the time, Barcelona had set a price of €30m.

However, the 22-year-old did not want to give up on his Camp Nou career.

His decision has paid off and the table below comparing his La Liga statistics from this and last season should make it clear why.

This Season-Last Season.

• Total minutes: 865-1623
• Minutes per game: 46-71

Chelsea transfer failed last summer

Wednesday edition of game There is a report on Mark Casado’s future after this season.

The newspaper relies on reports from Cadena Ser that the Spain international wants to leave the Catalan club after this season.

He has informed those close to him about his desire to listen to interesting offers and then choose the best option.

Barcelona, ​​for their part, are considering selling the defensive midfielder in the summer. Since he is an academy graduate, his sale brought significant benefits to the Blaugrana.

Sport then gives its opinion on the matter and mentions Chelsea and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Last summer, both clubs made concrete approaches, but the player rejected their offers to stay at the Camp Nou.

However, this did not work and now ‘opens the exit door’ to the next window. His value has declined further after a disappointing season.

The Spaniard has changed agents and is now represented by Jorge Mendes, who also has Chelsea’s Pedro Neto on his client list.

His agent will ‘definitely find him a new club’ and it remains to be seen whether it is Chelsea or another club.

Our View: Why the Blues on Wolves

Wolves are now bottom of the table and look set for relegation. Marc Casado will not want to move to the Championship, leaving an easy way for Chelsea to sign him.

This, coupled with the drop in price and the involvement of Jorge Mendes will make it relatively easy for Liam Rosenior’s side.

Now the time has come for Aboubakar Sedi Kinteh to move on as Manchester United are increasing their interest.

According to Malik Diop, President of Mawde Wade Academy, Talking from Africa Foot. The first was a 19-year-old centre-back in their academy.

Kinteh currently plays for Tromsø after joining Tromsø in March last year. He has been impressing since, so much so that there is reportedly interest from the Premier League.

Reports in England have hinted at this, with Chelsea and Manchester United recently named among suitors.

Manchester United’s efforts

In fact, one such report stated that Jason Wilcox and Omar Berada were planning to travel to Norway to scout young Tromsø IL talent.

Sport Witness then covered a report from Corriere dello Sport detailing Manchester United’s interest. It said those in charge at Old Trafford had planned a ‘blitz’ to defeat the youngsters in the competition.

Now Diop has backed his former talent to make the move and has heaped praise on the youngster in the process.

“He’s a very athletic guy who anticipates challenges,” he said.

“Being athletic is one thing but knowing how to anticipate challenges makes you comfortable. These qualities inevitably make him a tough defender to handle.

“It is time for him to leave. There was already interest from clubs during the winter transfer window, but it was not the ideal time for a young player, because there is already an established team and it is not easy to break into the first team…

“However, the best time is summer. He will have time to acclimate and establish himself.”

Manchester United’s focus is on youth

The interest in Kinteh certainly coincides with a new effort by Manchester United to focus on youth around the world.

There have been several big signings in this regard, with Lenny Yoro, Chido Obi-Martin and Diego León being the most high-profile. 23-year-old Senay Lammens could also fit into that category.

Kinteh now appears on the list, and it seems his former academy director is convinced the move comes at the right time.
