Casado featured in 36 matches for Barcelona during the 2024–25 season but saw his playing time limited in the final months after returning from a knee injury. Despite his potential, Barcelona are currently well-covered in midfield, and with Casado fit again, the club may look to offload one of their players in that position.
Casado’s future has become a hot topic in recent weeks, attracting interest from several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United.
According to El Nacional, Atletico Madrid are also in the race and are preparing a formal offer. The young midfielder has spent the last eight years with Barcelona, but a move away from Camp Nou now seems increasingly likely as Atletico step up their pursuit.
