Barcelona Freeze Out Oriol Romeu Ahead of Imminent Exit
Barcelona midfielder Oriol Romeu has been left out of the club’s Asia tour despite being medically cleared confirming his exclusion from Hans Dieter Flick’s plans for the upcoming season.
Not Injury , But Transfer Strategy

Girona Move in Advanced Stages
Negotiations between Barcelona & Girona are progressing well for what could be permanent return to the club where Romeu previously shone. The financial hurdle remains , Barca're expected to cover at least half of his salary until his contract expires in Jun 2025.

From Key Piece to the Margins
Romeu was pivotal figure during his 2 season at Girona helping the team secure La Liga survival and qualify for the Champions league.
That form prompted Barca to bring him in last summer for 3 million euro as short term replacement for Sergio Busquets.
However injuries & inconsistent form saw his minutes dwindle leading to loan move back to Girona last January.
