Barça’s Youth Academy Celebrates Two More League Triumphs, Ensuring the Future

The Cadete A team led by Arnau Blanco clinched a league title four matchdays before the season’s end with a resounding 0-3 victory over Gimnàstic de Manresa.

Meanwhile, Jordi Pérez’s Sub-11 A side secured their league championship after an impressive 1-7 win against AE Prat, extending their winning streak to 26 consecutive victories.

At the Joan Gamper Sports City, the culmination of months of hard work is evident in April and May. With four youth teams now crowned league champions, including the Cadete A and Sub-11 A squads, the 2008 and 2013 generations are heralding a promising future.

Despite missing key players throughout the season, including Guille Fernández and others, who were either with Barça Atlètic or the Juvenil B team, Arnau Blanco’s Cadete A squad showcased remarkable resilience. Players like Pol Bernabéu and Pedro Rodríguez seamlessly transitioned between different youth categories, maintaining their ambition and commitment.

The Cadete A team, characterized by their exquisite style of play, boasts a formidable defense led by Álex Campos and Nico Marcipar, complemented by a midfield orchestrated by the sublime Pedro Rodríguez. Sama Nomoko adds verticality and depth to their attacking prowess, while players like Nil Vicens, Adri Guerrero, and Roberto Tomás have been instrumental in midfield.

Jordi Pérez’s Sub-11 A team, comprised of talents from the previous season’s Benjamín A squad, underlines the club’s commitment to nurturing young talent. With players like Pep Farrés, Jaume Casanovas, and Mario Franco, along with the versatile Guillem Balcells, the team’s flawless record of 26 wins in as many matches reflects their dominance and potential.

Under the guidance of Jordi Pérez, who has been instrumental in developing future stars, these young teams epitomize the essence of Barça’s playing style, setting a promising trajectory for the club’s future success.
