FC Barcelona continues to work discreetly on the medium-term planning of its squad, and one of the key positions that concerns the offices the most is the goalkeeping position. With Ter Stegen set to return for the next season and Wojciech Szczęsny emerging as the second goalkeeper in the short term, the club wants to cover its back and secure a reliable goalkeeper for the future. In this context, Deco, the sporting director of the Blaugrana, has put forward a name that has gained prominence this season: Leo Román.
The 24-year-old goalkeeper from Mallorca has emerged this season as one of the revelations between the posts in LaLiga. His stellar performance at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid has convinced Deco, who has reportedly presented his proposal to Hansi Flick. The German coach views the operation favorably, especially due to the player's contractual conditions.
An option for the future, both to play and to do business 6cz6f
Leo Román has a €12 million release clause, but his deal with the Balearic club expires in June 2026, so an offer between €7 and €8 million could be sufficient to secure his incorporation. Barcelona values both his potential and the possibility of making a future profitable sale.
The club's roap is clear: sign Leo Román now and loan him to a La Liga team during the next season, while Szczęsny completes his cycle. In this way, Barcelona would ensure a smooth transition in the goalkeeping department, all while considering an efficient resource management. Leo Román enters the scene as a firm bet on the young national talent highly valued by the Culés entity.
