4 Barcelona youth players who can become superstars

#4 - Ricard Puig

Riqui Puig - one for the future?

A creative midfielder who has great vision, Riqui Puig broke out on the grand stage after that Youth League success like all other players in that title winning squad. But instead of that regular limelight that you expect from a single trophy, Puig received unmatched attention from the media and fans after that tournament.

After receiving tons of traction in the transfer market, Puig was reportedly close to joining Spurs, but his manager Garcia Pimienta prevented another La Masia gem from leaving the too club early.

Now linked with Barcelona on a deal with a release-clause of around a 100 million euros, Puig would be a part of the pre-season squad for Barcelona's tour of the US. He has also been promoted to the Barcelona B for the 2018-19 season, a pretty good deal for an 18 year old.

It has to be seen how Puig influences on the big stage, but if it is anything like what he did at the youth level, Barcelona have a superstar on their hands!
