Barcelona demanding €12 million to sell Gerard Martin
Barcelona will reportedly demand at least €12 million to part ways with 23-year-old Spanish full-back Gerard Martin this summer amid his links with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
According to a report by Spanish outlet SPORT, Gerard Martin is the subject of interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Black Country outfit will aim to sign a left-back in the summer transfer window as they prepare to sell Rayan Ait-Nouri to Manchester City. So, the Barcelona full-back has emerged as a target for the Premier League club.
The newly crowned La Liga champions have now set their price tag to part ways with the Spaniard, and they will demand at least €12 million to sell him to Wolverhampton Wanderers. While Barcelona preferred not to sell Martin, they are prioritising keeping Hector Fort at the club over his compatriot. So, a move to the Premier League may be on the cards.
Gerard Martin: The latest Barcelona prospect on the rise
Gerard Martin has become the latest player to graduate from either La Masia or Barcelona Atletic to the Catalan club’s first team. The Barcelona native spent his formative years in his homeland but has only been with the Blaugrana since July 2023. However, the youngster enjoyed his breakthrough with the senior side in the 2024/25 season.
The Spanish full-back turned out nearly 50 times for Barcelona in the 2024/25 season while chipping in with one goal and six assists. Meanwhile, Martin’s progress has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs. Wolverhampton Wanderers are among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.
Premier League adventure beckons?
Wolverhampton Wanderers’ interest in Gerard Martin makes sense. The Black Country outfit will lose Rayan Ait Nouri this week, with the Algerian international on the cusp of joining Manchester City in a big-money deal. So, the Premier League club will look to replace him in the summer transfer window.
Martin has thus emerged as a viable target for Barcelona, with the Blaugrana setting the price tag to cash in on him in the summer transfer window. The Catalan giants want at least €12 million to part ways with the 23-year-old Spaniard.
While Barcelona preferred not to sell Martin after his breakthrough campaign, Hector Fort’s presence in the first-team squad meant the Spanish full-back was always under threat of getting on the chopping block. However, it is unclear if Wolverhampton Wanderers are ready to pay €12 million to sign him from Barcelona in the coming weeks.
