Mamadou Mbacke (21) was one of the big disclosures of the Barça Atlètic in the season 2023/24. Although it received less attention that his compatriot Mika Faye, the Senegalese defender showed to have a big potential and projection for the future. Therefore, it would not be surprising that the Barcelona picture look for to ensure his continuity of face to the next season.
In fact, according to the journalist Tom Bogart of 'The Athletic', the combined Catalan already is negotiating with Los Angeles FC to concretise the definite permanence of Mbacke in the club. It is necessary to remember that the initial agreement with the group angelino only stipulated the cession of the defender until 30 June, what means that, if there are not changes, would have to return and join again to the dynamics of the American team.
To his time, the exposed source in previous lines adds that the price of transfer would be around the 3,7 million euros, a near figure to the clause of agreed purchase in the loan with the combined North American during the last market estival. This, as it informed in 'SPORT', was of four 'kilos'.
The injury of Mbacke detained his big progression in the Barça Atlètic
Unfortunately, his successful season 2023/24 saw truncated by a complete break of the internal lateral ligament of the left ankle, what did that it lost the end of the campaign with the Barça Atlètic. In 22 commitments contested and 1.758 minutes of action, the one of Rufisque attained two annotations and an assistance, forming an almost impenetrable saga beside his compatriot Mika Faye.
Now, in case to concretise this operation for the FC Barcelona, the club would be ensuring again the services of a defender with a physicist imponente and very powerful, provision that turn it into an authentic 'wall', in addition to being a guarantee in the aerial game because of his height (1.90 metres). Likewise, Mbacke possesses a big technical quality.
These are important characteristics for a 'escudero' that it could be key for the filial if finally it rises to LaLiga Hypermotion (Second Division), a category in which it already has experience, since it faced 25 meetings with the Villarreal CF B in the period 2022/23. Added to this, no descarta the option that have the opportunity to play with the first team culé, since previous to his injury was forming recurrent part of the trainings, although it was not summoned for any 'bump' in the maximum category in this period, motivated surely by the remarkable 'overbooking' of defenders of the that enjoys the Barcelona staff.
