Romeu’s Barca Journey on the Rocks: Departure Looms as Midfielder Falls Short of Expectations

Barcelona’s acquisition of Romeu as a replacement for Sergio Busquets hasn’t gone according to plan, with reports suggesting that the midfielder has failed to meet the initial expectations set for him. Despite having a contract until 2026, Barca is reportedly considering parting ways with Romeu next summer.

Interestingly, his former club, Girona, has expressed a keen interest in bringing him back in June 2024. Quique Carcel, the club director, is optimistic about the prospect, stating, “100%, I really want that. Romeu gave us magical things, taught our players how to compete. It’s not easy due to his contract with Barca, but I don’t see it as unlikely.”

However, for Barcelona, the departure of Romeu would necessitate finding a suitable replacement to fill the void left by the midfielder. The upcoming transfer window poses a crucial challenge for the Catalans as they navigate through potential changes in their midfield dynamics.
