Marc Casado has confirmed he will be eligible to play against his parent club, Barcelona, when Deportivo La Coruna hosts them on November 29. The midfielder personally ensured that his season-long loan agreement excluded any restriction that would prevent him from facing the Catalan side.
He worked with his agent, Jorge Mendes, to guarantee that his availability would remain at the discretion of his current manager, Antonio Hidalgo.
Casado recently returned to the pitch on November 7 following a recovery from a fractured collarbone sustained in September. While he is now fit for selection, the 23-year-old is currently prioritizing Deportivo's upcoming match against Alaves on November 21 before turning his attention to the reunion with his former club.
