Marc Casado continues to be linked with a move away from FC Barcelona, with Arsenal among the clubs reportedly interested in securing his signature.

The Gunners are understood to view the midfielder as a potentially important addition and have placed him on their shortlist ahead of the next transfer window. Arsenal’s recruitment strategy remains focused on strengthening key areas with players capable of improving an already competitive squad.

Arsenal Interest Builds

Mikel Arteta’s side is eager to maintain one of the strongest squads in the Premier League, and Casado is seen as a player who could contribute significantly in the next campaign. His profile appears to fit the type of technically strong and tactically disciplined midfielder Arsenal values highly.

The club are expected to continue monitoring his situation closely in the coming weeks, particularly if there are indications that Barcelona may be willing to consider offers. Should an opportunity arise, Arsenal could intensify their pursuit.

Competition, however, is likely to make any deal more complicated, with several clubs also tracking the player.

Rival Interest Emerges

As reported by Area Napoli, Napoli is among the teams interested in Casado, while Arsenal’s strongest competition may come from within the Premier League.
