Almer\u00eda’s stay in Segunda puts Marc Pubill on the launching pad of the Ind\u00e1licos. Bar\u00e7a and other clubs want the right-back, but his clause generates doubts<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

Almer\u00eda was on the verge of returning to LaLiga in 25\/26. Joan Ferrer’s team played in the promotion ‘play off’, but fell in the semi-final against Real Oviedo (3-2 on aggregate)<\/strong>. This forces the Ind\u00e1lico team to dispense with its main figures, including Marc Pubill<\/a>.<\/p>

The 21-year-old defender, from Espanyol’s youth academy, is one of the ‘low cost’ alternatives that FC Barcelona has on its radar as far as full-backs are concerned. The player from Terrassa was already in the cul\u00e9 orbit last summer<\/a> and the latest information puts him back as a possible ‘hidden’ player for the blaugrana defense.<\/p>

Although Bar\u00e7a has no doubts about the continuity of Jules Kound\u00e9<\/a>, the Frenchman does not have, for the moment, a 100% reliable substitute in the squad. Eric Garc\u00eda<\/a> did a good job of covering for the Parisian in the last month of the season, but Hansi Flick prefers to sign another natural right-back.<\/p>

H\u00e9ctor Fort’s departure, key to Bar\u00e7a’s interest in Marc Pubill<\/h2>

And, although the cul\u00e9s have H\u00e9ctor Fort<\/a>, the 18-year-old defender will be one of the discards for next season. The ’32’ has only accumulated 710 minutes of action spread over 21 games (5 as a starter) and, understanding that his contract ends in 2026, the club prefers to sell him for a figure close to 10 million euros.<\/p>

This move would open up a place in the squad for Pubill, although Almer\u00eda refuses to negotiate below the price of his termination clause. The ‘albirrojo’ team is asking for 15 ‘kilos’ net for the Catalan defender<\/strong>, an affordable amount, but high for a Second Division player.<\/p>

In 24\/25, Marc played 40 games (3,107 minutes) in which he scored 1 goal and 5 assists<\/strong>. His contribution was not enough to return Almer\u00eda to the golden category of Iberian football, but it was enough to awaken the interest of Bar\u00e7a and other big clubs in Europe.<\/p>

In addition to the blaugrana team, Italian media point to Marc Pubill as one of the alternatives that Antonio Conte has on his radar for Naples<\/strong>. The current Serie A champion has Giovanni Di Lorenzo<\/strong> as the first option for the right side, but the Partenopei captain does not have a reliable replacement.<\/p>

Pasquale Mazzocchi<\/strong> is the other option available, one of the possible discards from the team this summer. The other big name in Calcio attentive to the future of the Almer\u00eda defender is AC Milan<\/strong>, who this summer begins a new cycle with Massimiliano Allegri. The ‘rossoneri’ incorporated Kylie Walker<\/strong> in January, but the Englishman did not have an outstanding performance in his loan spell.<\/p>

Another of the teams that could go for Pubill is Stuttgart<\/strong>. Sebastian Hoene\u00df’s team will not play in European competitions (like Milan) next season and hope to strengthen their defense, after conceding 53 goals in the last Bundesliga (third worst record in the league’s top-10).<\/p>

Therefore, if Bar\u00e7a really intends to go for Marc, they must activate contacts with the player and Almer\u00eda shortly. The cul\u00e9s also keep open the possibility of signing another left-back, as long as Gerard Mart\u00edn<\/a> decides to try his luck at another club.<\/p>
