FC Barcelona needed defensive solutions and Flick has found a true gem in Gerard Martín, a footballer capable of providing balance, security, and aggression in equal measure. That trust has translated into many minutes on the field and a growing role in important matches. All of this has made him one of the most gratifying surprises of the season: the culé fans are delighted with him.
His performance has been so impressive that PSG has made a strong and determined offer. The Parisian club has put $21.6 million (€20 million) guaranteed plus $16.2 million (€15 million) in add-ons on the table in an attempt to sign Gerard Martín. Without a doubt, the amount offered by Luis Enrique's team will force Barça to think very carefully about their response.
