"FC Barcelona remain strongly focused on recruiting young talents to bolster their youth and reserve ranks and turn them into stars for the first-team setup. Work is being done to get the signing of 17-year-old striker Hamza Abdelkarim from Al Ahly over the line, while the Catalans remain alert to other exciting youth prospects. One such player happens to be 15-year-old Norwich City winger Ajay Tavares, with reports earlier today suggesting that Barcelona were well-positioned to sign the youngster."
"Deal very close Building on that, SPORT now reports that Barcelona are indeed very close to completing the signing of Ajay Tavares from Norwich City. Despite being from the United Kingdom, the player holds a European passport, which allows him to be transferred once he turns 16 on 28 December, without having to wait until he turns 18 years old."
FC Barcelona are prioritizing recruitment of young talents to strengthen youth and reserve ranks and develop first-team players. Negotiations target 17-year-old striker Hamza Abdelkarim from Al Ahly while pursuing other prospects. Barcelona are very close to signing 15-year-old Norwich winger Ajay Tavares. Tavares holds a European passport, enabling a transfer once he turns 16 on 28 December. He plays primarily as a left winger but has featured as a centre-forward due to height and power. Tavares has progressed through England youth teams up to Under-17 and has drawn interest from Premier League and foreign clubs. He could join Barça Atletic and bolster their promotion bid, though an immediate reserve-team role is not guaranteed.
