Barcelona has had promising young players who emerged from the famed La Masia, playing at a surprising level for the first team.
From Lamine Yamal to Pau Cubasi, these youngsters are barely even 20 years old. Still, they are sought after by numerous clubs around the globe.
Last summer, it was revealed that the French champion, Paris Saint-Germain, made a whopping €250 million for Lamine Yamal. Hector Fort was sought after during the January winter transfer window.
Como’s January €8M Bid for Hector Fort
In the January transfer window, the newly promoted Serie A club Como approached Barcelona for a potential move of Hector Fort to Italy, but Barcelona rejected the offer.
The desire of the youngster to succeed at Barcelona also played a key factor in the collapsed deal.
Hector Fort barely featured for the first team this season due to the presence of Frenchman Jules Kounde, who is having a spectacular season with the Spanish club.
Kounde’s consistency has caused Fort to be sidelined for most matches, and Gerard Martin has emerged as the backup for Alejandro Balde.
