It approaches the start of the pre-season 24/25 for the FC Barcelona, the first under the management of the German trainer Hansi Flick, that is programmed to begin the next 10 July. Everything indicates that the one of Baden-Wurtemberg will have to begin with an important number of juvenile players of the Barça Atlètic, since varied of the usual players of the first team culé will be with his respective selections contesting the Eurocopa and the Glass America, and even some like Fermín López, Pau Cubarsí and Eric García will be with the selection sub-23 in the Olympic games.
In this point, in 'Sportive World' suggest that the trainer germano will have at least 11 footballers of the 'B' in his first working times like technician of the combined Catalan. There will be two guardametas summoned, Ander Astralaga (20 years) and Diego Kochen (18 years), two names that already have formed part of the first team from the season 2023/24, since both have occupied the place of third goalkeeper in the club. Astralaga Even became the second goalkeeper when Marc André ter Stegen lesionó and Iñaki Crag had to assume the titularity along several commitments.
Héctor Fort, Gerard Martín and Mika Faye (defenders)
In the background line appear a pair of men of band, as Héctor Fort (17 years), the one who already debuted in the first team during the period 2023/24 and left very good feelings. So much it is so it has outlined like the ideal candidate to be the second to the control in the place of right side. On the other hand, it is Gerard Martín (22 years), another footballer that could be considered to reinforce the right-handed lane of the Barcelona picture. Although it has not had the occasion to debut in the maximum category, has stood out like the right side title in the combined of Rafa Márquez.
Now, the third player in this equation is Mika Faye (19 years), the one who probably was one of the most commented names in the City Condal in the last days. When seeming, the defender could be object of a traspaso to the Port wine, cast that has showed interest in him after his sensacional season with the Barça Atlètic. Nevertheless, this announcement reinforces the intentions of the FC Barcelona to have a footballer that can reinforce so much the saga like the left side, and that was looking for his opportunity in the first team.
Marc Casadó, Marc Bernal, Noah Darvich, Aleix Garrido and Unai Hernández (midfield players)
Regarding the midfield players, the trainer germano will have two names that erigen like clear candidates to reinforce the zone of mediocentros of face to this season: Marc Casadó (20 years) and Marc Bernal (17 years). These two players have been usual in the Barça Atlètic. The first, perhaps with a bit more than hierarchy that the second, since it has been captain of the filial and even has had the opportunity to debut in the maximum category. However, the second has captivated to all and sundry with his imponente physical and a style of game very strong to defensive level and technically correct.
To his time, Hansi Flick also wants to see in this pre-season to Noah Darvich (17 years), a midfield player with tendencies more offensive. After a first year of adaptation in the Barça Atlètic, has not been able to show with all the brilliance that knows that it possesses. Nevertheless, the technician germano trusts that it can direct it to show his best level, as it deploys it in the lower categories of the selection of Germany.
Likewise, also they will see action other two midfield players like Unai Hernández (19 years), the one who has been one of the gratas surprises in the sportive project of Rafa Márquez in this season, and Aleix Garrido (20), one of the technically better players conceptuados in the institution culé. Nevertheless, the injuries have not respected him in this course, so much with the filial as with the first team, where already debuted in the campaign 2022/23.
Ángel Alarcón (leading)
To close, in the offensive front, a zone that lost to two active that they could have made the pre-season under the orders of Hansi Flick, as Marc Guiu and Pau Víctor, now will have Ángel Alarcón. The one of Castelldefels, another that already knows what is to see action in the maximum category with the picture culé, had a season 2023/24 marked by several physical problems that did not allow him see too much action with the Barça Atlètic. Now, already recovered, will have the opportunity to show like a candidate to reinforce the Barcelona offensive front.
