Barcelona midfield legend shares high praise for rising star – ‘Playing at a spectacular level’

Barcelona’s rising talent, Marc Casado, has earned high praise from club legend Sergio Busquets, who has noted the young midfielder’s impressive performances this season.

Despite being assigned a more defensive role, Casado has demonstrated an unexpected skill for setting up goals, already delivering five assists, with crucial contributions in matches against top rivals like Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Espanyol.

Casado’s journey has been a noteworthy one. While he initially debuted under Xavi, it was not until Hansi Flick took the helm that his potential truly began to shine.

He has quickly established himself as an essential piece of Barcelona’s midfield, standing out in a squad that includes stars like Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, Lamine Yamal, and Pedri.

While these big names often attract the spotlight, Casado has quietly made his mark as a “silent guardian” on the field, securing his spot as one of the team’s standout performers.

Competing for playing time with experienced players like Frenkie de Jong, Casado has consistently shown his value to the team.
