FC Barcelona recently received several substantial offers for Gerard Martín, including a proposal greater than 15 million euros made by premier League residents, Wolverhampton according to Sport. If the Catalan club had opened the door to a sale at the start of the summer, the player clearly expressed his desire to stay in Catalonia. His entourage also closed the door to any negotiation in August, confirming that the defender in no way wants to leave Catalonia despite the growing interest of foreign clubs.
In the current context, a departure appears to be not very possible. The departure of íñigo Martínez reduced the options in defense, and Hansi Flick has already used Gerard Martín in central defense during the pre-season. Barça counts on its versatility to strengthen its workforce, while Balde remains, for the moment, the number one choice on the left and the progression of Jofre Torrents is also closely monitored. Unless it was deemed impossible to refuse, Gerard Martín should stay at least until January 2026, before a new decision was made according to his playing time.
