Chelsea and Manchester United could be involved in battle to land Spanish star. The player is very young and can cost as high as €80 million in summer window.
The star in question here is Marc Casado of FC Barcelona. He is 21 years old and has came through La Masia. The Spanish club consider him a key asset at the club. However, there are still questions about his future at Camp Nou due to the interest from top clubs.
Casado has became a regular player for first-team this season. Infact, he is now a regular starter under Hansi Flick. So far he has played 34 games for Barca this season and has registered 1 goal along with 6 assists. He has played mostly as holding midfielder but has also played as central on multiple occasions.
Chelsea and Man United both interested to sign Marc Casado
According to Fichajes via 90 min, Man United have joined the race to sign Marc Casado. Chelsea were already in the race but the report states that United are ready to step-up their interest. The Red Devils are ready to spend €80 million to lure Casado away from Barca.

Chelsea are keen to sign another midfielder this summer. They want a player who can play as both central and holding midfielder. On the other hand, Man United are keen to find replacements for Casemiro and Eriksen who are both set to leave the club in summer. In addition, there are doubts about Kobbie Mainoo’s future at Old Trafford.
However, it will not be easy for any club to sign Casado. Barcelona view him as a key player and want the player as part of their long-term future. They will surely try hard to make him available and the player too can choose to stay at his boyhood club.
