Liverpool scouts are said to be interested in a talented Barcelona prospect. According to CaughtOffside, Marc Casado has caught the eye of Liverpool scouts with his impressive vision and control as a midfielder for Barcelona.
The report indicates that Liverpool views the 21-year-old as a player who could have a big impact right away under Arne Slot at Anfield, rather than needing time to adjust to the team.
This shows Liverpool’s belief in Casado’s ability to make an immediate impact, even though he has only made 18 senior appearances for Barcelona, 13 of which were this season (Transfermarkt).
Casado has shown his creativity as a number 6, providing five assists and ranking in the top 1% of midfielders in Europe’s top five leagues for assists in the past year (FBref).
He also demonstrates proficiency in pass completion, with a rate of 89.4%. His average number of progressive passes per game stands at 6.7, while he records 2.62 tackles per match.
These statistics underscore his versatile abilities, especially considering his limited playing time on the first team.
