FC Barcelona remains active in the market, trying to raise the squad to the highest level for next season. While the signings section is considered practically closed, barring any surprises, all efforts are now focused on finalizing some departures. Deco is working tirelessly on this and, in recent hours, an opportunity has arisen for him to make a good sale.
10 M and he goes to Paris
L'Équipe has revealed that Paris FC, a Red Bull-owned team that has been promoted to Ligue 1, has shown interest in Héctor Fort. In the French capital, they highly value his talent, youth, and potential, keeping a close eye on him in another summer when the academy graduate is rumored to leave.
At Paris FC, they believe Fort fits perfectly with the profile they're looking for on the right flank. They're closely following him and are very interested in signing him, although Deco doesn't intend to make it easy at all.
For Héctor Fort to leave, Barça's sporting director is asking for €10 million (10 million euros), in addition to keeping a percentage of his future sale and the option to buy him back. Although Hansi Flick believes he's still inexperienced and, right now, doesn't fit the profile, the reality is that they think he has great potential and don't want to lose track of him.
Full-back for the future
FC Barcelona's academy is once again in the spotlight. Héctor Fort, a full-back just 19 years old, has burst onto the transfer market and is emerging as one of La Masia's great gems. Last season, he played 20 official matches with the first team, leaving a very good impression both defensively and offensively. His competitive character, combined with his adaptability, makes him a highly valued profile outside the culer team.
In fact, Fort can play not only on the right side of the defense. His versatility has also allowed him to perform on the left flank when the team has needed it, something the new coaching staff especially appreciate.
Héctor Fort has shown maturity, tactical awareness, and personality with the ball at his feet. In the locker room, his discipline and commitment stand out, two values that have been crucial for his growth within the club.
Despite this and having a valid contract, Hansi Flick still isn't fully convinced. Deco has put him on the "mercatto" and his next destination could be Paris. The conditions for his departure are clear.
