Real Madrid player on Barcelona’s table… Hansi Flick insists on signing him and Deco tries hard to complete the deal

Hansi Flick and Deco have identified a player with ties to Real Madrid to bolster Barcelona’s squad: Miguel Gutiérrez, the talented young left-back currently shining for Girona. Gutiérrez has drawn increasing attention from Barcelona, who see him as a promising option to strengthen their left flank. His impressive performances for Girona, marked by both solid defensive work and attacking contributions, have positioned him as one of La Liga’s top full-backs.

Gutiérrez’s rise has caught the eye of Flick, who is eager to reinforce the left-back position, currently occupied by Alejandro Balde. However, according to the Spanish outlet El Nacional, securing Gutiérrez won’t be easy. He has a release clause of €35 million, which could be a hurdle for Barcelona given their financial constraints. Despite this, officials at Camp Nou believe investing in the player could be a valuable step to improve the team’s depth in this position.

Real Madrid retains the option to buy Gutiérrez back for just €8 million. However, the club is currently focused on securing Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies, which might open the door for Barcelona to negotiate a deal.

Sources close to Gutiérrez indicate that a return to Real Madrid isn’t entirely off the table, though the fierce competition at the club may not align with his career aspirations. At Barcelona, Deco, who plays a pivotal role in sporting decisions, shares Flick’s enthusiasm for bringing Gutiérrez in.

Both believe the player could be a strong addition, not only in the short term but also for the team’s long-term rebuilding as Barcelona seeks to rejuvenate its squad while maintaining competitiveness.
