Real Madrid Confidencial Neither Lamine Yamal nor Raphinha: the Barça Player Who Surprised Florentino the Most
The one who surprised Florentino in the Clásico wasn't Yamal or Raphinha, but another star player who made the Whites look bad
The last game between Barcelona and Real Madrid has been one of the most significant debacles for the Meringue team. This in the same season, after also losing by a landslide in the clásico at Bernabéu. Now, on this occasion, it was for the final of the Spanish Supercopa with an embarrassing score of 2 to 5.
In this game, there were a considerable number of outstanding Barcelona players who left the Meringues in a very bad position. However, the one who definitely left Florentino Pérez most surprised was the young Barça academy player Marc Casadó. This player, after his incorporation into Barcelona's first team, has been one of the key pieces in the midfield for the club.
Right now, he's one of the most important players for his coach Hansi Flick and has significantly increased his value at just 21 years old. For this reason, the white president has been extremely surprised by his performance and statistics.
Casadó surprises the president
The young Spanish soccer player is simply one of the great revelations of the season with his outstanding performances. This after several extremely good games, and in this one, it was no exception, with the 109 minutes played in this encounter.
He had a 91.84% pass success rate, as well as an assist and 13 passes in the opponent's final third. In addition to this, he had six ball interceptions and won nine duels just in this match, showing his great importance in the midfield.
The white president has been simply amazed by this superb performance from the culé academy footballer. Something that hasn't been seen at Real Madrid since Casemiro's departure to Manchester United, who was an expert at recovering balls.
They must act soon
This talented player has a long way to go to keep improving, and Real Madrid needs to face him as soon as possible. Otherwise, we could be witnessing the birth of Sergio Busquets's replacement and a Madrid without solidity in the midfield. For this reason, Florentino has the opportunity to change this situation before it's too late.
