La Liga
Marcelino García Toral is clear: reinforcing the midfield is an absolute priority for the upcoming season. The coach of Villarreal wants to add quality and balance to a key area of his lineup, and has already put an interesting name on the table: Stefan Bajcetic, as reported by La Colina de Nervión.
Villarreal aims to sign a midfielder in the summer
Bajcetic, who is currently on loan at UD Las Palmas, has shown that he has the necessary level to stand out in LaLiga, even in a complex context like that of the Canary Islands team. His performance, despite his team's inconsistency, has not gone unnoticed. Although his future at Anfield is uncertain due to a lack of opportunities, in Spain, he has found continuity and prominence, elements that Villarreal could offer him steadily.
The Castellón-based club carefully analyzes the market movements and believes there could be a favorable window for negotiating a new loan, especially if Liverpool does not consider integrating him into their main squad. The player's contract extends until 2027, but his value has decreased, which could make things easier.
Marcelino, who is looking for a midfielder capable of taking on responsibilities both defensively and in ball distribution, sees in Bajcetic a potential partner for a midfield that could lose pieces like Terrats. With Pape Gueye as the only established reference in that position, Villarreal needs strength and talent in the center of the field.
If timing and conditions align, the Submarine could secure a reinforcement for the future who is already familiar with the league. The operation is underway.
