Barcelona will be busy during the last days of the summer transfer window, which closes for business on Monday evening. Outputs are needed to ensure that the first team of Hansi Flick is registered with La Liga, and there are various candidates who have been identified to leave.
Hector Fort is one of them, with the young full-back who has been told that he will not be counted by Flick for the 2025-26 season. He is currently behind Jules Kounde and Eric Garcia Right-back, with Alejandro Bald, Jofre Torrents and Gerard Martin for him in the left pecking order.
That is why a loan movement is sought by Barcelona. Fort has attracted the interest of Premier League in recent days, but it is more likely that he stays in La Liga with Mallorca, where Jeantes (via MD) reported that they met Deco, the sports director of Catalans, on Tuesday with regard to the young defender.
But he was not the only player on the agenda, where the report confirmed that Mallorca officials also discussed Jan Virgili with Deco. The 19-year-old, who played for Barcelona in their heartbreaking U20 Intercontinental Cup defeat against Flamengo last weekend, is being sought for a transfer.
The interest of Mallorca in Fort and Virgili has been well documented in recent weeks, but now a new name has been discussed between the two clubs. Earlier this month, Barcelona decided that they would look at another promising young player in Dani Rodriguez, and despite ties with Valencia a switch to son Moix could now be on the agenda instead.
It will be interesting to see how much of the trio ultimately signed for Mallorca for Monday's deadline. Barcelona is open to all three departure, although they are expected to look for the best possible conditions during the negotiations – despite their despair due to the current registration situation.
