H\u00e9ctor Fort anticipated his return to training with Bar\u00e7a. Despite rumors about his departure, the full-back wants to stay and fight for a place in the 25\/26 season<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

The FC Barcelona<\/a> formally begins its 2025 pre-season next Sunday, but several ‘cul\u00e9s’ players have anticipated their return to the Ciutat Esportiva this summer. In addition to Andreas Christesen<\/a>, Ronald Araujo<\/a> and the brand new first addition of the summer, Joan Garc\u00eda<\/a>, H\u00e9ctor Fort<\/strong> also returned to the club’s facilities on Wednesday.<\/p>

The right-back arrived in Sant Joan Desp\u00ed in the morning and carried out a physical work session of around an hour and a half<\/strong>. The ’18’ also shared part of his routine during the holidays on his social networks weeks ago, showing his desire to arrive in top form for the pre-season.<\/p>

Although he was the defender with the fewest minutes in the squad<\/strong> (only Christensen played less, but the Dane spent eight months injured) in the 24\/25 season (710′ in 21 appearances, 5 as a starter), the youth player is confident of earning a place in the squad this summer, although Jules Kound\u00e9<\/a> and Eric Garc\u00eda<\/a> will be the first alternatives for the right-back position.<\/p>

H\u00e9ctor Fort does not plan to listen to offers this summer, but…<\/h2>

In that sense, Fort does not plan to listen to offers in the summer market to leave on loan or permanently. The full-back renewed last year until 2026 and his termination clause went from 10 million euros to a high figure (probably 100 ‘kilos’, although the board has not revealed it). In fact, the board’s initial bet is to extend his contract again until 2029<\/strong>.<\/p>

With Xavi Hern\u00e1ndez, the Catalan was a starter in almost the entire second half of the 23\/24 season, playing on the wrong side on the left flank. H\u00e9ctor is a natural right-back, but he can play without problems on both sides<\/strong>, without as much depth as Alejandro Balde<\/a> in the opponent’s half, but very applied in defense.<\/p>

SUMMER MARKET: PSV Eindhoven sets its sights on H\u00e9ctor Fort <\/a> <\/h4> <\/div> <\/section><\/div>

For the moment, several teams outside of Spain (Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Como<\/strong>) have sounded out his signing, but the defender has not given the go-ahead. Hansi Flick is not convinced of his role in the team, but if Gerard Mart\u00edn finally leaves in the summer market<\/a> and Bar\u00e7a does not sign another full-back, Fort will definitely stay, as there is no other available replacement for Balde.<\/p>

Bar\u00e7a will not force Fort’s departure<\/h2>

Beyond this situation, the club does not plan to force H\u00e9ctor’s departure. First, because he is a versatile defender with excellent potential<\/strong>. Furthermore, he is a local lad and his attitude so far has been exemplary, always willing to lend a hand when the coaching staff needs him.<\/p>

If the ’18’ manages to take advantage of the Asian tour to convince Flick<\/strong> to give him more minutes next season, it is very likely that the 18-year-old defender will end up staying. Otherwise, he will have no choice but to look for a team to find the regularity that every player needs, especially when his career is just beginning.<\/p>
