Several names have been mentioned in recent weeks. Specifically, Gabriel Moscardo and Arthur Vermeeren are two supremely talented youngsters that Barcelona are looking at, and they will continue to scout them over the coming months.
One player that Barcelona previously had on their radar was Fabricio Diaz. The Uruguayan youngster has had an excellent 2023m having helped his nation win the 2023 U20 World Cup early in the summer.
