Fermin hesitates at Chelsea-Barca crossroads

Fermin considers Chelsea.

From always affirming his absolute love for Barcelona, the young midfielder has now begun to seriously consider the invitation from Chelsea - an attractive opportunity both professionally and financially.

Staying at Camp Nou meant continuing to dream of success with the team he had been associated with since childhood. But the harsh reality was that after two rounds of La Liga, Fermin had only played 45 minutes, and was even left out of the plan for the match against Levante.

Coach Hansi Flick has preferred to experiment with Raphinha and Dani Olmo, leaving Fermin languishing on the bench. Competition for his two main positions - attacking midfielder and left wing - is fierce, with Olmo, Gavi, Ferran Torres, Rashford and Raphinha himself all jostling for position.

Meanwhile, Chelsea is not only a potential destination but also the current world champion according to FIFA's new tournament. "The Blues" promise to bring Fermin the opportunity to play regularly, at the same time pay double the salary of Barcelona. For a young talent who is eager to assert himself, this is an invitation that is hard to ignore.

Fermin is a talent of Barca.

What makes Fermin even more troubled is Barca's precarious financial situation. The club is willing to listen to proposals to reduce the wage bill and balance the Financial Fair Play rules, in the context of having a surplus of personnel in the midfield. Hansi Flick himself also admitted that he was not completely satisfied with Fermin in the pre-season, although he appreciated the recent progress.

Off the pitch, the player who grew up at La Masia has also gradually distanced himself from some of his close friends in the dressing room - a small detail that can have a big impact on his mentality and final decisions.

Fermin now has to choose: continue to be patient in Barcelona to pursue his childhood dream, or leave for Chelsea to find a breakthrough opportunity. Whatever the decision, this will certainly be a big turning point for the future of the young Spanish talent.
