In a striking move as the transfer window nears its end, RCD Mallorca has officially signed a rising star from Barcelona.
The Balearic Island club, known for its shrewd recruitment, has capitalized on the opportunity to bring in a young player with immense potential, adding depth and flair to its attacking ranks.
With the transfer market buzzing, Mallorca’s latest acquisition underscores their ambition to compete in Spain’s top flight while offering a new stage for a rising star to shine.
The player in question is Jan Virgili, a 19-year-old forward who has been a standout in Barcelona’s youth setup.
According to Mallorca’s official X page, Virgili’s name has been a focal point in transfer discussions across Spain, with several clubs vying for his services.
Facing a season in the fourth tier with Barca Atlètic, the young winger caught the eye of Mallorca, who moved decisively to secure his signature.
The prospect of regular La Liga football proved too enticing for Virgili, and Mallorca’s persistence paid off, culminating in a deal that ties him to the club for the next five seasons.
Mallorca announced the signing with enthusiasm, confirming via their official website and social media: “Jan Virgili, new player for RCD Mallorca.
The young forward arrives from FC Barcelona and signs for the next five seasons.”
This move marks a significant step in Virgili’s career, transitioning from Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy to a competitive La Liga environment at Son Moix.
For Mallorca, the acquisition represents a long-term investment in a player whose versatility and attacking instincts could prove vital in their quest to climb the league standings.
As the transfer window nears its end, Virgili’s move to Mallorca highlights the club’s commitment to nurturing young talent while signaling Barcelona’s willingness to let their prospects flourish elsewhere, ensuring a bright future for both the player and his new team.
