5 youth players Barcelona should recall from loan

#5 Sergi Samper

FC Barcelona v Chapecoense - Joan Gamper Trophy

The natural replacement to Sergio Busquets at the defensive midfielder position, Samper's career for Barcelona has been plagued by poor decisions from the administrative board.

Samper had an impressive preseason in the USA with the first team. After rising through the ranks of the Barcelona youth system, the club's decision to keep Samper away from his home for two consecutive seasons was not well received by the fans, who were keenly monitoring Samper's progress to replace Busquets in the future.

The holding midfielder also made his opinions vocal by stating how he was disheartened by the board's decision regarding his future when his dream was always to make his mark on the first team.
