It’s become more and more important for Barcelona to find and sign talented young players from around the world who will help them in the future.
With this plan, the club was able to sign players like Noah Darvich, Mikayil Faye, and Mamadou Fall. They were also able to land a deal for Vitor Roque.
Barça will keep up the plan as we move into the new year by looking at several young players, especially from South America.
The move by Barcelona to get Claudio Echeverri
Argentine teenager Claudio Echeverri, who plays for River Plate, is one of these interesting prospects that Barcelona wants to sign.
For a while now, the 17-year-old has been linked with the current La Liga winners, and it looks like a move has been made to get him.
As Gustavo Yarroch of El País said, Barcelona is ready to pay €30 million to get Echeverri from River Plate next year.
Another story from German Garcia Grova says that the Blaugrana are ready to pay more than €25 million to get the 17-year-old star player. They are also willing to pay the full amount at different times.
Barcelona is ready to beat City and Chelsea.
Premier League teams like Chelsea and Manchester City have also been interested in Echeverri, so it’s not just Barcelona that wants to sign him.
Catalans, on the other hand, have already made the first move and the first talks have started.
River Plate would like to offer the Argentine star an increase on his current deal, which ends on December 31, 2024. On the other hand, they would allow the player to leave if he told them he wanted to.
His managers want to get him a deal now so that he can start playing for his new team in the summer of 2024 when he will be 18 years old.
Now that Barcelona has taken the first steps to get Echeverri, it will be interesting to see if they are successful.
