Aston Villa have submitted an offer of €30 million for Barcelona's 21-year-old Spanish defensive midfielder Marc Casadó, who remains reluctant to leave. Despite Aston Villa's interest, Casadó also attracts attention from Atlético Madrid, who are willing to wait until the January transfer window, hopeful that he will reconsider his stance. Barcelona, while open to selling Casadó, face internal resistance from manager Hansi Flick, who is keen on retaining his squad. Casadó's contract is due to expire in 2028, and his current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €30 million.
