FC Barcelona winger Roony Bardghji linked with Premier League clubs as La Liga 2026/27 season begins

The 2026/27 season of Spain's La Liga has started, with the championship table already showing the usual battle between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, while other clubs such as Atletico Madrid and Villarreal vie for European spots. Barcelona entered the season as reigning league champions, having secured their 29th title and the domestic Supercupa the previous campaign.

Barcelona midfielder Roony Bardghji, a 20‑year‑old Swedish winger born in Kuwait, is being touted for a move away from the club. In his first season he played 29 league matches, scoring two goals and providing four assists. His market value rose to about €15 million and his contract runs until June 2029. Reports indicate that Premier League sides Brighton & Hove Albion and Liverpool are interested, and the club is considering a loan or a transfer with a buy‑back clause to retain future control over the player.
