Marc Casadó: The New Midfield Maestro for Barça

Marc Casadó has burst onto the scene with FC Barcelona, and fans and critics alike can’t stop talking about his game-changing impact. Many believe he’s already brought more to the table in a few short months than some established players have in years. Here’s why the 21-year-old midfielder is turning heads

Born and raised in Sant Pere de Vilamajor, Barcelona, Casadó began his football journey in the youth setups at Vilamajor, Sant Celoni, Granollers, and Damm before joining Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy at 13. His leadership qualities emerged early, and he captained the Juvenil A team, leading them to league and Copa de Campeones victories in 2020-21.

Casadó made his senior debut with Barcelona Atlètic in August 2022, showcasing his talents with a gritty performance against Castellón. By November, he had made his Champions League debut against Viktoria Plzeň, seizing his opportunity when Franck Kessié left the field injured. Casadó's influence continued to grow, and he was named captain of Barcelona Atlètic for the 2023-24 season, debuting in La Liga later that season.
