Hi community!
The Bavarian club tempted the Barça youth player to sign him this summer.
Fermín López was close to completing a double cap for the Spanish national team one more summer, but common sense prevailed, and he only appeared for the senior Spanish national team in the UEFA Nations League, which Luis de la Fuente's team ultimately lost after losing the final to Portugal. The player from El Campillo didn't play a single minute in the Final Four, perhaps because he was overcome with emotion by asking not to go to the European Championship with the U-21s.

No one knows his physical condition better than the Barça youth player, who is more familiar with his own condition than the Barça youth player. Last year, he already won the Euros and Olympics twice, with the resulting wear and tear. The truth is, everyone wants Fermín López on their team. First and foremost, Hansi Flick, who wouldn't even consider the midfielder's departure this summer.
The German coach's best ally is the player himself, who also has no intention of leaving Barça. Since his uncle inoculated him with the Barça virus, a Barça player has fought his entire life to get to where he is, and with a contract until June 30, 2029, he's not willing to let anything deviate him from his path of continuing to succeed with the Blaugrana.
He finished the season like a rocket, making the most of every minute Hansi Flick gave him, and he's clear that the competition in the first team will always be at the highest level, but that's nothing he hasn't experienced during his time in youth football. He knows this and accepts it. That's why when he receives interest from clubs looking to sign him, the answer is always the same: thanks, but no.
One of them, according to Ben Jacobs on his official 'X' account, is that Bayern Munich has been one of the teams tempting the player to bring him to the Bundesliga. He has a €500 million buyout clause, and the Germans obviously wouldn't reach that figure, but they would be prepared to make a significant investment if Fermín López had opened the door.
That hasn't been the case, and the Bavarian club will have to continue searching the market to strengthen its midfield. They're clear that the player from El Campillo would be a perfect fit, but the player doesn't just play for Barça, he belongs to Barça. And that doesn't come (only) from money.
See You soon!
