Barcelona FC news

Ferran Torres is making headlines on Saturday thanks to a report from Sky Sport Italia that claims PSG are keen on the Barcelona forward this summer.

Barcelona are said to be ready to make a contract extension offer to Torres but over in Italy the word is that he’s in Luis Enrique’s thoughts as well.

The report states that Torres “is considered the number one candidate to replace any departing attackers” this summer, with Bradley Barcola touted as the player most likely to move on.

PSG like Torres because he’s into the last year of his Barca contract and also due to his good relationship with Luis Enrique.

Torres isn’t the only Barca player being linked with an exit. Speculation about Marc Casado’s future continues, with Mundo Deportivo doing a good job of talking up interest from Atletico Madrid.

The club are said to be really keen on the Barcelona midfielder but are still waiting on Diego Simeone to give the transfer the green light.

Meanwhile, Manchester United and Bayer Leverkusen are also said to be interested in Casado if he does decide to leave Barca this summer.

Where do you think Casado will play his football next season? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe has revealed that he enjoys plenty of banter with France team-mate Jules Kounde due to the rivalry between their two club sides.

The two players are currently with Les Bleus for World Cup 2026 and Mbappe admits that Kounde has the upper hand when it comes to bragging rights recently due to Barcelona’s success and Madrid’s lack of trophies.

“Do I see him as a Barcelona player since I’ve been at Real Madrid? Yeah, totally!” he told L’Equipe.

“We tease each other a lot more than when I was in Paris. Okay, he’s had the last word a bit more lately because we’re not winning, but we’ve always been able to separate things when it comes to the national team.

“We get along well. He’s a guy I talk to about a lot of things, especially politics.”

Kounde famously scored a brilliant winner against Real Madrid to seal the Copa del Rey in 2025 and has also picked up La Liga titles in the last two seasons.

Mbappe, meanwhile, is yet to win a major trophy since joining Madrid from PSG in 2024.

FC Barcelona goalkeeper Joan García is keeping his cool in the stifling heat of Chattanooga, Tennessee, as Spain prepares for its World Cup opener. He established himself as Barcelona’s definitive number one under Hansi Flick this season, but things look different under Spain manager Luis de la Fuente, where Athletic Bilbao’s Unai Simón is widely tipped to start.

García is drawing comparisons to another Barcelona legend who famously spent years as a backup during Spain’s golden era – Víctor Valdés.

“I wish I could achieve the same as him, he won everything,” García said in a recent interview with Diario SPORT.“I am very happy to be here and looking forward to enjoying going as far as possible.”

The opportunity in the squad opened up in tragic fashion after Marc-André ter Stegen suffered a severe knee injury, ruling him out of the tournament. It wasn’t how he would’ve wanted it. In fact, García described Ter Stegen’s “unfortunate” injury with an expletive – using a Spanish term perhaps best translated as “a f*cking bummer.”

The ex-Espanyol keeper is already dealing with scrutiny after a recent friendly against Iraq, where he was caught off guard by a shot and conceded. But rather than dwelling on the mistake, García insisted “it would be an error to give it a lot of thought or beat myself up for it.”

While García focuses on training alongside Simón and Arsenal’s David Raya, Barcelona’s recruitment team is already looking at future options for the Camp Nou goal. Real Sociedad’s Álex Remiro, who was dropped from this latest Spain squad, has been heavily linked with a move to Catalunya. García spoke highly of his international teammate: “he is a great goalkeeper, I’ve always said it, he is one of the ones I like the most in La Liga.”

For now, the focus is entirely on the big tournament in North America, where expectations are sky-high for la roja. Spain’s camp just received a boost with Lamine Yamal gradually reintegrating into team training. García confirmed the teenager “will be ready for the debut.”

The keeper is ready to play his part, even if it means watching from the bench.

“Only one goalkeeper can play. Whoever gets to play has to give everything, and the rest have to support him from the outside,” he said.

World Cup 2026 is underway and Barcelona have a massive presence with 16 players featuring for eight different nations, and there is a very good chance that a Blaugrana star will steal the show in North America over the next five weeks.

Spain have the largest contingent with eight Barça players in total, and betting on Lamine Yamal and Pedri to shine for La Roja if they make a deep run is more than safe. Raphinha has a chance to be Brazil’s spiritual and technical leader as they hope to win a first World Cup title in 24 years, and Anthony Gordon may very well prove his worth with his performances for England.

Hamza Abdelkarim is hoping for a chance to make the breakthrough with Egypt as he tries to impress Hansi Flick ahead of preseason, and Frenkie de Jong will absolutely be at the heart of everything good that the Netherlands do in North America.

There are several world-class superstars and young players looking to show their skills on the biggest stage, and bring joy to not only their nations but Barça fans everywhere.

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Which Barcelona player will stand out the most at the World Cup and why?

Now it’s over to you! Feel free to share your thoughts, predictions, opinions and answers in the comments section below!

Spain midfielder Rodri has revealed just how laser focused Lamine Yamal is on the World Cup ahead of La Roja’s opening game against Cape Verde on Monday.

Yamal is closing in on a return from injury and is expected to be fit for the match. Rodri says the teenager is relishing the challenge ahead of him and is ready to give the tournament his all.

“He’s very excited and happy, I see him eager,” he told El Larguero. “The other day he told me he wasn’t going to the team lunch because he had to prepare for the World Cup. I don’t know if he was joking or not.

“He’s doing well. I see him motivated and eager. In fact, he didn’t go to the lunch because he’s focused.”

Rodri also says he has no worries about Yamal’s fitness as he works his way back from a hamstring injury.

“With Lamine’s age, I think he’ll recover from his injuries in no time and he’s in great shape,” he added. “Well, Nico is different, because Nico has been a bit more hampered throughout the year, but I see Lamine as perfectly fine.”

Yamal is currently expected to be on the bench for Spain’s game against Cape Verde but could potentially see some game time as a second-half substitute.

Barcelona have announced they are bidding to host the 2029 Champions League final at Camp Nou.

The Catalans have issued a statement to confirm their intentions and have explained why they should be handed the showpiece event.

“The bid highlights Barcelona as a city with proven experience in hosting major international events and the Spotify Camp Nou as a world-class stadium.

“With a long-standing history linked to the biggest stages of international football and currently undergoing a profound transformation that will position it among the most modern, innovative and iconic sporting venues in the world, the Spotify Camp Nou meets all the conditions to become the ideal stage for a UEFA Champions League final.

“The venue has historically been recognised by UEFA as a top-category stadium and is the largest in Europe by capacity.”

Bernardo Silva is set to make a decision on where he’ll play his football next season after featuring for Portugal at World Cup 2026.

Barcelona had appeared set to land the former Manchester City man but the Catalans have now reportedly cooled their interest.

Bernardo has admitted that Barcelona are an option for next season, while Atletico Madrid are also keen and are reportedly leading the chase now.

According to Jijantes, Bernardo is prioritising a move to Diego Simeone’s side “because he’ll have a starring role that he wouldn’t have right off the bat at Barcelona and that really appeals to the player.”

Silva is expected to take over from Antoine Griezmann in the Spanish capital following the Frenchman’s departure this summer.

Barcelona, meanwhile, can’t offer the Portugal international a leading role at Camp Nou which could be the decisive factor when it comes to Silva’s final decision.

Bernardo hinted at such when he spoke about his future this week, saying: “”In the end, I’m going to try to find a team where they want me, where I feel truly wanted. That’s very important, and you’ll know the day I make my decision.”

The Julian Alvarez transfer saga took a fresh twist this week as Real Madrid announced in an official statement they had made a €150 million bid for the Argentina international which had been rejected by Atletico.

Los Colchoneros promptly responded with a predictably spiky message on social media, also making sure to take aim at Barcelona once again.

The events have prompted plenty of debate over Real Madrid’s intentions and whether in fact both clubs are simply trying to mess with Barcelona.

The Catalans have reportedly made a €100m bid for Alvarez, which Atletico apparently don’t want to acknowledge, and are said to be unfazed by Real Madrid’s offer.

The rumor mill also claims that Barcelona won’t go crazy for Alvarez and remain confident Atletico can be drawn to the negotiating table as the striker wants to join Hansi Flick’s this summer.

With the World Cup about to start, it seems almost certain that any transfer for Alvarez is going to be a long, drawn-out and potentially ugly affair which may not even end in success for Barca.

So is it really worth it? Or should Barca think about moving on and looking at other targets?

Tell us what you think about Alvarez and whether Barca should keep going or call it a day in the comments below!

Marcus Rashford has fuelled speculation that his time at Barcelona is over with his latest social media activity amid reports that the Catalans will not pay the buy option in his contract.

Barcelona have just five days left to trigger the €30 million clause in his loan deal, but the club have decided against making the move, according to Marca.

The signing of Anthony Gordon, the finances involved and the fact that Rashford will turn 29 this year are all said to be factors in the club’s decision on the England international.

However, Fabrizio Romano says that might not be the end of Rashford’s story at Barcelona and that the Catalans “remain open to new solutions, like another loan deal.”

Meanwhile, Rashford has fuelled speculation that he won’t continue at Camp Nou by removing all mentions of Barcelona on his social media pages and switching to England themed photos on his profile pictures.

The forward has said publicly he wanted to say but has reportedly already resigned himself to returning to Manchester United for pre-season after World Cup 2026.

Having already signed Gordon, Barca’s focus remains signing a striker to replace Robert Lewandowski this summer.

Ronald Araujo has sustained an injury ahead of World Cup 2026 with Uruguay which has led to criticism from the player’s brother and frustration at Barcelona.

Mikael Araujo posted on Instagram “Thanks for injuring players just days before the World Cup!” in a pointed message to the national team, while Barcelona are also unhappy at the situation, per Sport 890.

The defender arrived for international duty with a known calf issue and Barcelona warned the national team that he should train separately to avoid any problems.

However, it seems that Araujo ended up doing double sessions with the rest of this team-mates which made the injury worse. Araujo did decide to stop and then jetted back quickly to Barcelona for treatment.

Barcelona are said to be baffled as to why Araujo was not handled with more care, while the player’s decision to go back to Barca for treatment is said to be because he’s lost confidence with Uruguay’s medical staff.

Araujo is now a doubt for Uruguay’s World Cup opener but the hope is will be able to feature in the other games against Cape Verde and Spain.

Barcelona and Luis de la Fuente haven’t enjoyed the best of relationships over the last 12 months due to differing opinions over the use of Lamine Yamal.

Ahead of World Cup 2026, it seems there may still be some tension between both parties. According to Diario Sport, Barcelona are worried about the Spain coach’s recent comments about Yamal.

Yamal is on his way back from a hamstring injury and Barca are eager for him to be eased back carefully. De la Fuente, meanwhile, has suggested Yamal could play from the get go.

“I think they will all be available for the first game, but we will assess whether it is interesting for them to play that game, not only because of the risk aspect, but because our view goes beyond a second or third game,” he told reporters recently when talking about his injured players.

Barcelona are concerned about Yamal suffering a relapse and think that Spain’s opener against Cape Verde – which comes 54 days after the teenager’s injury – would present a real risk to the teenager if he does feature.

The club’s worries have been compounded by the fact that Yamal hasn’t been training at 100% just yet and was also not ready to play in either of the team’s two warm-up games.

Barcelona know there is a very real risk of relapse, particularly with a hamstring injury, and that Yamal’s return must be managed carefully.

The fear is that it’s a difficult situation to control, particularly at a World Cup where players are desperate to play and there’s pressure on teams to get results.

Marcus Rashford’s future has taken another twist as Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing the England international this summer.

The Bavarian giants have already missed out on Anthony Gordon and have also failed in an attempt to land Liverpool starlet Rio Ngumoha.

Reports in Germany and England now claim that Rashford is a target. The Bavarians are willing to meet his €30 million price tag but his wages are likely to still prove a problem, per The Sun.

The report is being backed up by Marca, with sources claiming that Bayern are keen but Rashford “is not answering any calls” as he only wants to stay at Barca.

Barcelona have until June 15th to exercise the buy option in Rashford’s current loan contract but look unlikely to do so as things stand.

Rashford has said he wants to stay but with Barca also chasing a new No. 9, it looks difficult right now to see where he would fit in next season at Camp Nou.

Marc Cucurella is once again being linked with a move to Barcelona as speculation about the Spain star’s future continues to swirl.

The left-back has been linked with a Chelsea exit this summer and admitted last season he’d find it difficult to turn down the chance to return to Barcelona.

A new update from Mundo Deportivo claims that Cucurella is prioritizing a return to Barca and has already told Chelsea he wants out of Stamford Bridge.

The Blues reportedly value Cucurella between  €40 and €50 million and Barca are interested. However, the only way a deal could be done would be if Alejandro Balde were to leave.

Barcelona are said to be willing to listen to offers for Balde this summer, although it remains to be seen if the defender can be tempted away from the Camp Nou.

But which player would be the best option for Barca next season? Tell us what you think in the comments below!

Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo has sustained a minor muscle injury ahead of World Cup 2026 with Uruguay.

The center-back has been named in Marcelo Bielsa’s squad for the tournament but is now taking a quick trip back to Barcelona for treatment.

The national team have issued a statement to clarify the situation

“To help resolve a muscle strain, the player will receive medical treatment from professionals who have treated him previously.

“The coaching staff and the AUF medical team agreed with this decision. He will not participate in group activities on Monday, rejoining the team on Tuesday the 9th, when they will travel that night to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.”

According to Ole, it’s thought “highly unlikely” that Araujo will play Uruguay’s first game of the World Cup but it is hoped he can recover in time to face Cape Verde on June 22nd and Spain on June 27th.

Barcelona star Raphinha came up against Hamza Abdelkarim on Saturday as Brazil took on Egypt in a World Cup warm-up in Cleveland.

Abdelkarim has made the Egypt squad following a winter move to Barcelona. Barca are expected to make the transfer permanent this summer and hand him a chance to impress in pre-season.

Brazil ran out 2-1 winners with Raphinha grabbing an assist for the winning goal by Endrick. Bruno Guimaraes had earlier opened the scoring but Egypt hit back quickly through Mostafa Ziko.

Raphinha and Abdelkarim then enjoyed a nice moment after the game as they swapped shirts in front of the cameras.

The Barcelona star then spoke about Brazil’s performance as they fine tune preparations for this summer’s tournament.

“The result gives us confidence. We’re going to try to improve even more to arrive at the World Cup, if not perfect, then as close to perfect as possible,” he told GE TV.

Brazil’s first game of the World Cup is against Morocco on Saturday 13th June, while Egypt open up against Belgium two days later.

Spain boss Luis de la Fuente says Lamine Yamal is “getting better fast” from his hamstring injury ahead of World Cup 2026.

There’s been plenty of debate about Yamal’s fitness, with speculation that he may not play in the opening group games.

De la Fuente says he expects Yamal to be passed fit in time for the tournament but added a decision has not yet been made on whether he will face Cape Verde in Spain’s opener.

“He’s getting better fast, hitting all the targets earlier,” he told the Guardian. “I think he’ll be able to play the first game, but that doesn’t mean [he will].

“We’ll evaluate if he has to play a little bit, not play, wait for the second game.”

There was also plenty of praise for the Barcelona teenager who will be expected to impress at the World Cup this summer.

“Lamine was born for this. He has a daring character. Maybe that [pressure] would have overwhelmed you or me. But these guys are special,” he added.

“How many times have we asked of a player: ‘How good was that guy, what happened to him? Why didn’t he make it?’ Because you have to be good at football and a thousand things more.

“Lamine was 16 [at the Euros], 18 now, he puts up with a brutal media pressure and makes very few errors. One minute, one mistake, and the focus is on that; that’s not fair. There are hours, days, with physios, nutritionists, psychologists, coaches … it’s the work, the values.”

Spain’s first game is on June 15th against Cape Verde, followed by a clash with Saudi Arabia on June 21st.

Dani Olmo has been quizzed on Barcelona’s transfer activity ahead of a potentially busy summer for the Catalan giants.

Anthony Gordon has already arrived from Newcastle United, while the club continue to be linked with moves for Julian Alvarez and Bernardo Silva.

Olmo was also asked about all the transfer rumors and thinks Gordon will be a good addition to the squad.

“Ultimately, the best players have to play for Barça. Gordon is a signing that will raise the team’s level. We welcome him, of course, and wish him a good World Cup, although not against Spain,” he told Mundo Deportivo.

“These are world-class players. Anything that comes in to contribute and raise the team’s level will always be welcome.”

Olmo’s focus is now on the World Cup with Spain and he’s confident of victory.

“We repeat the phrase: we’ll start the World Cup in Atlanta and finish it in New York, which is also one of my favorite cities in the United States. That’s our goal,” he added.

“I think we’re ready. There are a few players who are carrying knocks, but we’re all certain they’re working their hardest to be available and that they will be. So we’re confident and have complete faith in the group we have.”

Yamal is now in the USA with the Spain squad. The team are due to play a final friendly on Sunday against Peru and will then put full focus on an opening group game against Cape Verde.

There’s been speculation that Yamal may sit out the early games, but he is expected to be fit in time for the match and Luis de la Fuente has hinted he could feature.

World Cup 2026 is almost here and sixteen Barcelona players will be in action in the United States, Mexico and Canada, and every World Cup creates new stars and raises the profile of players who make a mark in the sport’s biggest tournament.

Several of Barça’s stars performing in North America are already established as some of the best in the world, but a few could really raise their stock and see their market value skyrocket. New signing Anthony Gordon has a chance to justify his big price tag and perhaps prove himself to be worth even more with England, while Gavi could make a triumphant return to the world stage after missing plenty of time through injury and regain his status as one of the best young mdifielders on the planet.

Marcus Rashford may not be a Barça player anymore but could use the World Cup to earn a big move somewhere else, while young striker Hamza Abdelkarim has a chance to become a breakout star with Egypt and see a major increase in his value.

So today’s Barca Blaugranes Question of the Day is:

Barcelona’s World Cup Implications: Which Barça player do you think will raise their transfer stock the most during the World Cup?
