‎Barcelona risk losing La Masia starlet Guille Fernandez amid interest from Bayern, Man City and Dortmund

By: Shawn
‎Barcelona could be on the verge of losing one of their brightest La Masia prospects, as Guille Fernandez draws significant interest from top European clubs including Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund, and FC Porto.
‎
‎'Guille Fernandez.'
‎FC Barcelona 
‎
‎According to a report by The Daily Briefing, Borussia Dortmund are the latest club to join the pursuit of the highly-rated 16-year-old, whose potential has turned heads across the continent. However, Dortmund’s pursuit of Fernandez may hinge on their qualification for European competition next season, which remains in the balance.
‎
‎Further insights from SPORT suggest that Fernandez is still focused on establishing himself within Barcelona's ranks. The teenager reportedly hopes to emulate Fermin Lopez's pathway into the senior squad. Yet, with Barcelona Atletic facing potential relegation to Spain’s fourth tier and no clear route into the first team guaranteed, Fernandez is open to a loan move or even a permanent switch abroad.
‎
‎Fernandez signed his first professional contract with Barcelona last year, committing to the club until 2027. Despite this, the long-term security has not quelled speculation around his future, with rival clubs sensing an opportunity to prise the midfielder away from the Camp Nou.
‎
‎Barcelona are currently balancing youth development with competitive success. After their thrilling 5–3 aggregate win over Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, the Catalan giants are set to face Inter Milan in the semi-finals. Domestically, attention now turns to their upcoming La Liga clash against Celta Vigo on Saturday.
‎
‎The next few months will be critical not only for Barcelona’s continental ambitions but also for the future of one of their most promising academy products. Whether Fernandez continues his journey in Catalonia or seeks new horizons could shape the next chapter of his emerging career.
