One of the shining stars of Barcelona’s preseason debut victory over Manchester City on Tuesday night was Marc Casadó, who started and played very well alongside fellow Barça Atlètic teammate Marc Bernal and was heavily involved in the Blaugrana’s strong performance in the first game under Hansi Flick.
Casadó earned his first call-up to the first team last season under Xavi Hernández and played sporadically throughout the campaign, but his performance on Tuesday may have earned him a regular role in the side at least to start the season while Frenkie de Jong and Gavi recover from their injuries.
