Marquez told Radio Cataluyna: “Casado is very competitive and (coach Hansi) Flick, from the first moment he saw him, decided to keep him. We have to give him credit for that and having the courage to give the boy a rol.

“Barca B was a very different team without Casado in it.

"He reminds me of myself, in terms of attitude, character and desire to improve every day, giving his all in every match and training.”
