Hansi Flick was forced to put his faith in youth at the start of his managerial stint at Barcelona, although it is something he is more than comfortable doing. Marc Casado is one of the La Masia products who have been integrated into the first team for this season, and due to Marc Bernal's ACL injury, the 20-year-old will play a key role in the coming months .
Barcelona's financial constraints are likely to make it difficult for a top-level pivot to be signed in the next 1-2 years, and this is good news for Casado. During this period, he can establish himself as an important player – and Carles Martinez, who was the first coach of Casado at youth level, said. Sport that he believes that Casado is more than capable of doing this.
“He is a player who always gives everything, he understands perfectly what is happening around him, he is very competitive and always helps the team. He is one of the midfielders I trained with who I talked to the most about the game. He always understood it a lot well
“He is a very intelligent player on the field, very good at pressing and understanding defensive vigilance. I think he can make a career Barcelona.”
