Manchester City v FC Barcelona - UEFA Youth League Semi Final
Matondo has played against players senior to him

Matondo has been regarded as the bright prospect from Cardiff's academy since Aaron Ramsey was brought over to Arsenal. The Welsh starlet has attracted loan offers from other clubs but Manchester City is said to have rejected them all this season.

As a result, the winger has been playing for Manchester City's youth team in Premier League 2, where he has made 14 appearances.

At just 17 years of age, Matondo has received commendation from his senior team-mate, Benjamin Mendy, who called the Welshman a ''baby shark". Earlier in the season, Guardiola gave Matondo the chance to train with the first team, but the player subsequently focused on playing for the youth team.

Although he has not made any first-team appearances thus far, it is believed that he is not far from reaching that stage. Matondo has been playing for more senior age groups and was even selected to play for Wales under 21 last year.
