Barcelona Midfielder Unlikely to Depart Despite Serie A Giants’ Interest
Introduction
Barcelona midfielder Oriol Romeu is facing an uncertain future at the club, with limited playing time and various transfer rumors swirling around him. Despite the rumors, the Blaugrana are firm in their stance that Romeu will stay with them for the remainder of the season.
The Struggle for Playing Time
Romeu, who came through the ranks at Barcelona, has found himself on the sidelines, starting just four games since October. It appears that manager Xavi Hernandez has decided not to trust him in the key matches, leading to speculation about a potential move away from the club.
Interest from Girona and Getafe
Both Girona and Getafe have shown interest in bringing Romeu to their respective clubs, but recent developments suggest that they may have shifted their focus to other targets. Girona’s interest in Porto’s Nico Gonzalez and Getafe’s loan deal for Ilaix Moriba indicate that they may no longer pursue Romeu.
Roma’s Potential Interest
Reports from Italy suggest that AS Roma, managed by Jose Mourinho, could be eyeing a loan move for Romeu as a replacement for Renato Sanches. While Roma may offer a more attractive destination, a loan deal may not be in Barcelona’s best interest, especially if Romeu desires a move away from the club.
