Oriol Romeu hopes to resolve his departure from Bar\u00e7a soon. The midfielder, lacking offers, aims to terminate his contract to return to Girona<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona could soon terminate Oriol Romeu’s contract. Barring any surprises, the midfielder will be one of Hansi Flick’s discards for the Asian tour<\/a><\/strong>, as the coach does not count on the player from Ulldecona for the 25\/26 season due to the ‘overbooking’ of midfielders in the Bar\u00e7a squad.<\/p>

With the return of Marc Bernal<\/a> and the imminent renewal of Frenkie de Jong<\/a>, in addition to the presence of Marc Casad\u00f3<\/a>, Bar\u00e7a has enough players available for the defensive pivot position. Eric Garc\u00eda<\/a> himself can also lend a hand as a ‘5’ in emergency cases, so Romeu has no place in the team.<\/p>

In that sense, the 33-year-old player is set to return to Girona<\/a>, after a season on loan in which, although he was far from the version shown in 22\/23, he managed to convince M\u00edchel to keep him in his plans.<\/p>

Girona wants to recover Oriol Romeu at ‘zero cost’<\/h2>

However, the ‘albirrojo’ team only sees Oriol’s return to Montilivi feasible as a free agent<\/strong>. The midfielder has a contract with Bar\u00e7a until 2026, but the lack of formal offers for a transfer seems to force the ‘cul\u00e9s’ to terminate the player’s contract.<\/p>

The ‘Azulgrana’ team paid 3.4 million euros for Oriol in 2023. In his only season as a ‘cul\u00e9’, he played 39 matches (1,534 minutes) in which he provided one assist. At the moment, his salary is around 3.3 ‘kilos’ gross per year, so Bar\u00e7a must agree on compensation<\/strong> to terminate the footballer’s contract.<\/p>

A similar scenario may arise with I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/a> if, finally, no club presents a formal offer for the player from Alicante. The goalkeeper, however, is expected to travel to the pre-season tour with Hansi Flick’s team while resolving his future.<\/p>

The same happens with Pau V\u00edctor<\/a>. Unlike I\u00f1aki, the forward does have several clubs interested in closing his transfer, but Bar\u00e7a is asking for at least 10 million to let him go. <\/p>

Oriol Romeu will continue training at the Ciutat Esportiva while resolving his departure<\/h2>

In any case, Oriol Romeu continues training normally with the rest of the Bar\u00e7a squad while resolving his departure from the club. The midfielder has worked at the Ciutat Esportiva with a good face with the aim of getting physically fit for the start of the 25\/26 season.<\/p>

The previous season, the player from Ulldecona played 31 matches (6 in the Champions League) with Girona<\/strong> in which he added 1,805 minutes. Some physical problems diminished his performance, but M\u00edchel still considers him one of his trusted men.<\/p>

Hansi Flick, on the other hand, never took him into consideration since his arrival on the ‘cul\u00e9’ bench last season. After ruling out the signing of another ‘5’, the German coach trusted the young talent of Bernal and Casad\u00f3<\/strong> to cover the defensive pivot, a headache for Bar\u00e7a after the departure of Sergio Busquets.<\/p>
