Iñigo Martínez is on the verge of saying goodbye to FC Barcelona. The Basque defender could leave the club with immediate effect, as journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed. Despite being one of the strongest players last season under Hansi Flick's command, the center-back is in talks with the Barcelona board to find an exit that benefits all parties.

The interest comes from Saudi Arabia. Specifically, Al Nassr has shown willingness to sign the experienced defender, as Matteo Moretto has also confirmed. At 34 years old, Iñigo is under contract until 2026, but Barcelona sees no issue in opening the door if a convincing offer materializes. Getting rid of his salary and earning income for a player who arrived for free is considered a smart move from the boardroom perspective.

Iñigo Martínez, on Al Nassr's Radar

Martínez made his mark last season. His partnership with Pau Cubarsí was crucial in a team that ended up winning a historic domestic treble: LaLiga, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup. His contribution was not just defensive: he scored three goals and provided six assists in 46 appearances. A performance that enhanced his value in the market, despite his age.

Iñigo's departure forces Barcelona to act. Two options are already being considered behind the scenes: signing a center-back to strengthen the defense or bringing in a full-back and retaining Christensen in the center. The second option is viable considering the Danish player's versatility, although his future also raises doubts due to contractual conditions.

In any case, Iñigo's situation seems to be heading towards the end of a cycle. An unexpected move that can benefit a Barcelona in need of liquidity and a player who still holds value in a growing market like Saudi Arabia.
