Very promising LB
Paolo Maldini - "In my opinion, Messi should win the Ballon D'Or each year. He's an unbelievable player."
Looks a lot better than he actually is. Solid defensively (uncommon for a young player), but underwhelming offensively. Does not take any risk and he is very conservative. Hard to pull him out of his position, but he also rarely makes forward runs. Still young though!
Our best talent alongside Ilaix, Collado and Hiroki!
He's right behind them.
Reports that he'll be Firpo's replacement. Not directly however, as he'll keep playing for Barca B and called upon when needed.
We also have Dest who can play LB. We do look thin on the full back front, but Roberto should be back in a month or so.

According to Sport he is the next in line for a permanent promotion. Firpo leaving in summer is already agreed.
They like Gaya, but have agreed that a striker is more important as Alba still is decent enough for another season as starter.
Think it's a wee bit too early to promote him and he's hasn't established himself yet as a full-time starter with the B team as Pimienta has also been using Mika Marmol as an LB quite a bit this season as well.
I think what's going to happen is he will train with the main team more often next season and might get a game here and there but there's a bigger chance Dest will end up being Alba's main backup in a number of games with Roberto/Emerson? filling in the RB spot when Dest is playing LB.
I agree with you but you never know these days. Ansu never played for Barca B IIRC and was doing so so well before he got injured. Not gonna say he is that good, but he looks promising and some players have the necessary confidence to not get roasted by seniors even at 17. I mean, let's be honest, it is hard to do worse than Firpo.
