"As such, SPORT reports that Barcelona have taken advantage of the availability of a free agent to strengthen the attack of the reserve team, with no new permanent or loan signings allowed outside the transfer window. That player is Jon Cabo, who featured for Lugo last season and has recently been training with Barakaldo. The winger began training this Wednesday with Belletti's side and will undergo a trial period."
"The 25-year-old Basque forward, who developed in Athletic Club's academy, is currently without a contract and can sign for any club without legal restrictions. Cabo last played competitively on 4 May 2025 for Lugo, but subsequently suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in training and has since been working on his recovery without being tied to any club. Notably, his final appearance for Lugo came against Barça Atletic as he started as a left-winger for the Galician side in a 0-4 defeat."
FC Barcelona made one first-team signing in January while boosting Barça Atletic with several arrivals, leaving the reserve side with added depth but ongoing attacking shortages due to injuries. Juliano Belletti's squad is missing players such as Dani Rodriguez, Oscar Gistau, and Sama Namako through injury, prompting the club to audition free-agent winger Jon Cabo. The 25-year-old Basque forward, developed at Athletic Club, began a trial after training with Barakaldo following an ACL injury sustained after his last competitive appearance on 4 May 2025 for Lugo. Cabo can play on either wing, as an attacking midfielder or as a centre-forward, and could sign until season's end if judged fit to aid the promotion push.
