FC Barcelona doesn't keep still in the transfer market, even though it hasn't even opened yet. Although Hansi Flick holds him in high regard and is following his progress in the reserve team, everything seems to point to the departure of his compatriot Noah Darvich. At 18 years old, he hasn't taken the step forward that was desired at Barça and is available in the market, handling two important proposals from the Bundesliga.
Noah Darvich, 2 TOP offers to leave Barça
The German has made a total of 25 appearances so far this season with the reserve team, having been a starter only six times. In total, he has records of 1 goal and 4 assists in his entire stint at Barça, totaling 46 matches. He hasn't performed as was expected when he arrived in 2023 from Freiburg for 2.5 million euros, and now he is set to leave.
The latest reports point to Bayer Leverkusen and Stuttgart as favorites to take Darvich in the summer. He is willing to leave and looks favorably on his return to Germany. He has a contract until 2026, and now is considered the right time at Barcelona to manage his departure.
The intention at Barça is to recover the investment made two years ago, while also keeping a percentage of his sporting rights and a buy-back option. Although he hasn't taken that step forward that was desired, the Catalan club still trusts his potential and doesn't want to lose track of him in case he finally breaks through in the Bundesliga.
Noah Darvich, the jewel that hasn't stood out
Noah Darvich arrived at FC Barcelona with the label of a great promise of European soccer. Coming from Germany, the young player was a personal bet of the sports management, which incorporated him to strengthen Barça Atlètic with a view to a possible breakthrough into the first team. However, his performance this season has been far from what was expected.
Darvich is an offensive-minded midfielder, very technical and with vision, who can also play on the wing. He was expected to make a difference in the reserve team, but he hasn't managed to establish himself as an undisputed starter or shine with the desired continuity. Despite his quality, his adaptation to Spanish soccer hasn't been easy... and the club is already considering his departure in the summer.
