🚨Breaking News🚨: Barcelona’s Growing Talent Is About to Beat Messi and Ronaldinho! Byron Mendoza, a 14-year-old former Real Madrid youth player with a “magical left foot,” has been signed by Barcelona.
Despite FC Barcelona’s main priority being the first team, the club remains committed to reinforcing its youth academy. Even during financial challenges, Barcelona continues to build a sustainable project centered on developing young talent.
A critical component of this sustainability is nurturing youth players who can eventually contribute to the first team or Barcelona Atletic. According to SPORT, Barcelona has secured the signing of 14-year-old Byron Mendoza, a talented left-footed winger who made a strong impression in the youth ranks of Leganes. Barcelona had long identified him as a player to bring in.
Mendoza, who will turn 15 in September, is a former Real Madrid youth player who was let go by their coaches. Real Madrid reportedly tried to re-sign him, but Barcelona has successfully secured his talents.
Roger Rodríguez, the coach of Cadet A at Fornells, praised Mendoza, describing him as a player with a ‘magical left foot.’ He said:
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen a player like this; he’s on another level. He has a magical left foot, but he’s also very fast and not only creates havoc on the outside but also on the inside. It’s a marvel; he also has a powerful long-range shot and isn’t selfish at all; he knows how to associate very well.”
Mendoza is expected to join Arnau Blanco’s Cadet A side and work his way up through the ranks. With his exceptional talent and understanding of the game, he brings exciting potential to Barcelona.
