28 Apr
Summary
- Tommy Marques is a candidate for promotion to the first team next season.
- He has been a regular in senior training and matchday squads.
- His contract with the club extends until 2028.
Hansi Flick has consistently provided opportunities to La Masia prospects during his tenure at FC Barcelona. This season, Tommy Marques has emerged as a regular fixture in the senior squad lists.
The 19-year-old Marques is now considered a strong candidate for promotion to the first-team next season. He has been a consistent presence in senior training and matchday squads throughout the current campaign.
Marques made his official debut for the Catalans' first team in February, coming off the bench for a brief appearance against RCD Mallorca. His contract with Barcelona is secured until 2028.
Given the uncertain future of Marc Casado, a spot may open in the squad, potentially for Marques. Meanwhile, other academy players like Xavi Espart and Jofre Torrents await clarity on the club's full-back situation. Young midfielder Juan Hernandez and Patricio Pacifico are facing lengthy recovery periods due to ACL injuries.
