Key Takeaways
- FC Barcelona have placed a €10 million price tag on Swedish winger Roony Bardghji.
- The 20-year-old has grown frustrated with limited playing time behind star Lamine Yamal.
- The Catalan club may look to their famous youth academy, La Masia, to find a replacement.
FC Barcelona plan to sell several squad members this summer. The club needs money to buy new players. Roony Bardghji has joined the list of stars who could leave Camp Nou.
The Swedish forward arrived from FC Copenhagen last year for €2.5 million. His first season has produced mixed results. He has scored twice and provided four assists in 25 matches. However, most of these outings were as a substitute. He faces tough competition from Lamine Yamal for a place in the starting eleven.
In March, Bardghji spoke publicly about his lack of minutes on the pitch. This forced the club to think about his future. Spanish newspaper Sport reports that Barcelona will listen to offers worth €10 million. Club bosses would seriously think about accepting such a bid. However, the player himself will make the final choice.
Barcelona are happy with how the young winger has played. They do not see his situation as urgent. But if he cannot accept a role as a squad player, they will let him go. The coach, Hansi Flick, would be sad to see him leave. Bardghji has performed well when given chances.
If the 20-year-old departs, Barcelona will probably promote a young player from La Masia instead of buying an expensive replacement.
