Abde Ezzalzouli only thinks about playing for Barcelona next season. 'Marca' published that Xavi Hernandez will decide his future in the summer and that the player's plan is to join Barcelona from July onwards.
Abde Ezzalzouli wants to put down roots at Barcelona. The loan spell at Osasuna has been a success for all parties, despite the fact that Jagoba Arrasate's side failed to win the Copa del Rey against Real Madrid.
'Marca' explained that the Moroccan player is not considering any other option than playing for FC Barcelona next season. This would break any rumours linking him with a move to the Premier League.
Abde Ezzalzouli has a contract with Barcelona until June 2026 and is ready to convince Xavi Hernandez that he deserves opportunities. However, he is aware that the final say will be up to the sporting management.
The Catalan giants believe that a winger will leave in the transfer market. Raphinha has the potential to return to England, in which case Osasuna's '12' could take a step forward.
Xavi Hernandez spoke about Abde Ezzalzouli in the press room recently: "He has grown up a lot. I'm very happy with his loan at Osasuna. He has gone to a very good team to develop. He has made the difference in many matches. I see a great talent for him to succeed at Barca, it will depend on his mentality. He has the qualities".
