Reporter: If the playing time still does not increase, Bernal may apply to Barcelona to leave the team in the winter window

Hupu News on November 11 According to the news from Barcelona reporter Sergide Juan of "AS", if there is a lack of playing opportunities, Barcelona youngster Bernal may not object to leaving the team on loan in the winter window.

Since receiving medical clearance shortly before the game against Valencia on September 14, Bernal's total playing time was only slightly more than half an hour. In that game, he came on in the last nine minutes and also provided an assist. However, since then, he has almost disappeared from Flick's tactical arrangements.

In the league, he only played 1 minute against Real Oviedo. After that, he was not included in the squad for five consecutive games. He got another 1 minute of playing time against Celta Vigo. In the Champions League, he did play 11 minutes against Paris Saint-Germain and 10 minutes in the victory over Olympiacos.

While waiting for the specific situation of Casado's injury to become clear, Bernal has an opportunity to gain more attention after the international match break. The coaching staff was extremely cautious as he readjusted to the rhythm of the game, even making people wonder why he wasn't getting more playing time.

In terms of physical condition, Bernal is in perfect condition. What he currently lacks is to improve his rhythm through the game to match the intensity of the game. Flick asked him to be patient, and the player himself did so and understood that improvement needs to be gradual. However, if he is still marginalized in the next few games after the international break, then he may not object to leaving the team in the winter transfer window.

Before the Christmas holiday, Barcelona will play eight games, many of which will place high demands on players. If Bernal's involvement remains low, he may apply to the club to leave on loan until the end of the season. However, for now, Barcelona has no plans to let anyone go.
