Barcelona midfielder Oriol Romeu has decided to stay at the club, rejecting an offer from Naples. Romeu, who had a challenging season last year and was in the final year of his contract, seemed destined to leave the club this summer. However, a series of events led the player to change his mind.

Girona showed interest in g Romeu, but negotiations didn't succeed due to Barcelona's demands. Simultaneously, interest from a Serie A team, speculated to be Naples, also appeared as a viable option for the player's future. Despite this, Romeu has chosen to remain at his childhood club.

A key factor in Romeu's decision was a conversation with Barcelona's new coach, Hansi Flick. Flick assured Romeu of his place for the season, significantly influencing the midfielder's decision. Although Flick's style leans towards a more direct approach, Romeu is comfortable with what he has observed so far under the new coach's guidance.

At 33 years old, Romeu started well last season with Barcelona, but his performance suffered as the team adopted a less possessive style of play, eventually costing him his place under Xavi Hernández's leadership. Now, with a new season ahead and the confidence of the new coach, Romeu aims to prove himself and regain his position in the team.

The rejection of Naples was also influenced by the Italian team's lack of participation in European competitions, a factor Romeu deemed important. With this decision, Romeu prepares for a new season at Barcelona, hoping to contribute to the team's success under Flick's guidance.
