The Blaugrana were linked with several stars such as Joshua Kimmich, Martin Zubimendi,
Mikel Merino, and N’Golo Kante.
However, none of the four names above came to Camp Nou.
In addition, the financial crisis made it difficult for Barcelona to get a new pivot.
This situation made Barcelona coach Hansi Flick decide to look for a replacement for Busquets at La Masia.
A talented young man named Marc Casado was identified as a potential heir to Busquets.
According to a report by Mundo Deportivo, the 20-year-old will be given more playing
minutes in the senior team for the 2024-2025 season.
