Official, Luis Enrique wants him, but Al-Nassr offers €500M: 'Goodbye Barça'

Luis Enrique and Al-Nassr compete to finalize the signing of an emerging FC Barcelona star

Luis Enrique leads PSG's project and is desperate to try to sign one of the great emerging stars from Barça. The problem is that Luis Enrique isn't the only one bidding for the signing; Al-Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo's and Iñigo Martínez's team, among other stars, has also appeared. In fact, Al-Nassr, which competes in the Saudi League, would be willing to offer nearly €500 million (500 million euros) for a Barça gem who has many chances to make his debut against Valencia.

For now, Barça isn't considering a sale, but anything can happen ahead of the summer transfer window or even this upcoming January 2026. Luis Enrique wants to keep ruling with his PSG and knows that, to do so, it would be vital to have a star from Barça. The problem is that Barça has also received an informal proposal from Al-Nassr, a club from Saudi Arabia that has money to spare, as they say in Catalonia.

Barça isn't willing to let Marc Bernal go, a midfielder from Berga trained at La Masia who will return to the first team's squad against Valencia CF. After more than a year injured, Marc Bernal is back and, finally, will be able to make his official debut with Barça this season. According to "Diario SPORT", Bernal has received offers from PSG and Al-Nassr, although, for now, he only wants to play for Barça.

After signing defender Iñigo Martínez and tempting striker Robert Lewandowski, the Saudi League has now set its sights on Marc Bernal. This time, the interested team would be Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr, which would seek to pay "whatever it takes" to secure Marc Bernal's footballing services, Barça's defensive midfielder. For now, neither Barça nor Marc Bernal want to part ways, but both Luis Enrique and Al-Nassr are inquiring about the midfielder, who could get minutes against Valencia.

Al-Nassr is interested in Bernal, but Al-Hilal has also inquired about the Catalan midfielder, who is 18 years old. In addition, both Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal have also approached Robert Lewandowski, a center forward to whom they offered an annual salary of €100 million (100 million euros).

Another party interested in Marc Bernal is PSG's coach, Luis Enrique, who has reportedly contacted the midfielder's entourage to find out his current situation. As we explained earlier, for now, neither Barça nor Marc Bernal wish to part ways, but a move in the next summer 2026 transfer window can't be ruled out.
