While it already has the greatest talent of his generation and probably one, if not the best player in the world, in the person of Lamine Yamal, Barça would be interested in another nugget, 17 years old. Also. Indeed, according to information from journalist Rudy Galetti, Barcelona management would like to enlist the services of Geovany Quenda, who plays for Sporting CP. He nevertheless specifies that the Blaugranas have not concretely positioned themselves on the matter, the fault certainly being the sum on which it will be necessary to align to recruit him (his release clause is estimated at 100 million euros).
This season, the young Portuguese player has played 31 matches, scored two goals and provided six assists. A right winger by training, he is capable of playing on the left, but also as a piston, as he did under the command of Ruben Amorim. Already summoned with Portugal, he has not yet played a single match.
Still according to Rudy Galetti, several big Premier League clubs would also like to have Quenda in their ranks. Last October, the newspaper A BOLA revealed that Manchester United scouts had traveled to Portugal to observe him during a championship match. In France, it was the newspaper L’Équipe which indicated that Paris Saint-Germain was also on the case. The fight to recruit the future best – or 2nd – player of tomorrow promises to be fierce.
