German football giants Borussia Dortmund are reportedly setting their sights on one of Barcelona’s brightest young midfielders, Guille Fernández.
According to transfer insider Gianluigi Longari, Dortmund have already contacted Barcelona to make inquiries about a possible deal for the talented 17-year-old.
Now, for those who closely follow Barcelona, Guille’s name won’t sound new at all. The youngster has been making waves in the club’s academy setup, often tagged as one of the most promising players coming out of La Masia.
Omo, this is where e dey hot! Guille was even called up by new Barça coach Hansi Flick for pre-season training last summer, and again this year, showing just how highly the club rates him.
But here’s the issue – with Barcelona’s midfield already packed with big names like Pedri, Gavi, Frenkie de Jong, and İlkay Gündoğan, breaking into the first team isn’t easy. Reports have long suggested that Guille could be tempted to leave in search of more senior minutes elsewhere.
And this is why Borussia Dortmund’s interest is causing serious buzz. Remember, Dortmund has a strong track record of taking young players, giving them game time, and turning them into world-class stars – just think about Jude Bellingham, Jadon Sancho, and Erling Haaland.
Omo this one go pain Barça fans if it happens! Losing a gem like Guille Fernández so early could be another headache for the Catalan club, who are already struggling with financial challenges and squad rebuilding.
For now, there’s no confirmation of a formal bid, but according to reports, Dortmund have officially asked Barcelona for information about Guille Fernández’s situation.
The coming weeks will reveal whether Barcelona plan to hold on tight to their wonderkid or if Dortmund can lure him away with the promise of regular first-team football.
One thing is certain: this gist no be small – it’s about to get hot in the transfer market!
