One of the young players in the English Premier League is suffering from a lack of opportunities to participate in the first team, despite his brilliance in the European tournaments.
This situation has led the player to desire a return to the club where he began his career, hoping to continue his development and progress.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, Marc Guillou made a name for himself on the European stage thanks to his outstanding performances in the Conference League, where he became the tournament’s top scorer. With six goals in the group stage, the young striker became one of Chelsea’s most prominent stars. However, his success in Europe did not alleviate his frustration with the lack of playing time in the English Premier League, prompting him to express his desire to return to Barcelona.
Marc Guillou’s desire to return to Barcelona contrasts with the firm stance of Joan Laporta, as the Barcelona president has been clear about his policy toward young talents who choose to leave the club before proving themselves.
Marc Guillou’s decision to leave for Chelsea last summer surprised many at Barcelona, especially considering his great potential. However, the young striker chose to accept the offer from the English club, believing that the project presented by Chelsea would provide him with more exposure.
Now, after enduring a difficult period with limited minutes since last August, his situation has become complicated, and it seems that his success in Europe has not been enough to change his role within Maresca’s team.
At the same time, Barcelona continues its policy of supporting players who have fully committed to the club. Joan Laporta and the sporting directors believe that young talents must prove their loyalty and willingness to grow within Barcelona’s structure, a philosophy that, at least for now, leaves Marc Guillou outside the possibility of a return.
