Al Hilal in talks with Barcelona over Casadó

Marc Casadó's future remains up in the air. Al Hilal has submitted a formal offer to FC Barcelona for the 22-year-old midfielder, whom the Catalan club rejected in July, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The main sticking point is the player's valuation. Barcelona demands over €30 million and even hopes to push closer to €40 million, a figure the Saudi side is unwilling to pay at present. Negotiations between both clubs remain deadlocked over these financial differences.

On a personal level, talks are progressing well: Casadó is in good sync with Al Hilal. However, a final agreement hinges on the two clubs narrowing the gap.

Meanwhile, the midfielder has caught the attention of several European leagues. Teams from Serie A, Bundesliga and the Premier League are closely monitoring his situation, though no formal bids have been tabled yet. For now, Al Hilal's remains the most concrete proposal on the table.
