What happened. Al-Hilal have made fresh contact over Marc Casadó, with Barcelona valuing the midfielder at over €30 million and holding firm near €40 million.

• Casadó was left out of Barcelona's pre-season squad for friendlies against Nottingham Forest and Udinese.
• Barcelona are pursuing Manchester City's Rodri and see Casadó's sale as a way to free up space and funds.
• Progress is being made on personal terms with Al-Hilal, but the fee remains a sticking point.

Casadó's future depends on whether the clubs can agree on a fee, with Barcelona preparing for a possible exit.
