Aleñá, Riqui Puig and Collado, examples of how difficult it is to make a career at Barça

Xavi Hernández remembers constantly that the FC Barcelona is the most difficult club of the world. The fans culé never is satisfied and the media have confirmed the theory of the technician after the titles of League and Supercopa of Spain. However, further of the external requirements, inside the rows of the institution also there is an arduous route to stand out and leave footprint in the team.

And it is that in the inferior categories have existed names very important that have left big feelings and that aimed to a more prolonged stay inside Can Barça. In fact, in the last seasons three of them have split in search of opportunities and the minutes that could not have in the first Barcelona team.

Carles Aleñá and Riqui Puig

The first in going out was Carles Aleñá. From 2013 it was escalando positions in the quarry to the point to turn into one of the mediocentros more striking of Spain and, with so alone 18 years, already aimed to big things opening step in the announcement of Ernesto Valverde. However, in spite of the good feelings that left, the true is that it would not have hollow in a team plagado of superestrellas like Sergio Busquets, Iván Rakitic, Arturo Vidal and Andrés Iniesta. It was yielded to the Betis and to the Getafe until the 'azulones' did with his index card by five million euros in 2021.

Also it stands out Riqui Puig, the one who finished changing of airs the campaign gone through decision of Xavi Hernández. To the equal that Aleñà, was opening step in The Masia and his 'DNA Barça' called a lot the attention of the trainers of the club, to the point that so much Ronald Koeman like the own egarense gave him opportunities in the trainings and announcements. In spite of this, Frenkie of Jong, 'Busi' and the explosion of Pedri and Gavi made impossible his evolution and finished splitting course to Los Angeles Galaxy with hardly 21 years.

Hill aims to the Betis

Finally it is Álex Hill, the one who would have all done to change the elastic of the Barcelona by the one of the Betis. His growth was exponential from 2010 but could not do with a place in the team, since so much Ansu Fati like Ousmane Dembélé projected like maximum referents of the bands after the course of Leo Messi. Added to this, the signings of Ferran Torres, Adama Traore and Raphinha made impossible his stay and nowadays would be to a step to leave definitively course to Benito Villamarín.
