Some players at Barcelona are reportedly dissatisfied with their limited playing time, including Pau Victor. A standout performer during pre-season, Pau impressed fans and coaches alike with his exceptional skills and scoring ability.
He netted crucial goals, even against top-tier teams like Real Madrid and Manchester City, showcasing his readiness to contribute to the first team.
His performance justified the €3 million investment made by Barcelona’s management, following an outstanding season with the reserve team, where he emerged as the top scorer in the Spanish League.
His efforts played a vital role in propelling the team to the promotion play-off final, although they ultimately fell short against Córdoba.
According to Spanish newspaper El Nacional, Pau received several loan offers from La Liga clubs last summer. However, Barcelona coach Hansi Flick persuaded him to stay, promising increased playing time and a key role in the squad.
Despite these assurances, Pau’s current role has remained minimal. He has largely been used as a substitute or in emergency situations, even though he consistently delivers strong performances when given the chance.
Statistics highlight Pau’s limited involvement: he has started only one match and accumulated just 193 minutes across 14 appearances.
Nonetheless, he has managed to score two goals and register one assist. These numbers reflect both his efficiency on the field and his frustration with the lack of trust from the coaching staff.
Pau reportedly feels misled by Flick, believing that he deserves a more prominent role, especially considering the underwhelming performances of some of his teammates, such as Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. He finds it unfair to be the last option in the attacking lineup despite proving his worth.
If significant changes are not made and Flick fails to honor his promises, Pau has reportedly decided to leave the club in the upcoming January transfer window. His desire for consistent playing time and professional growth may drive him to seek new opportunities elsewhere.
