The latest news from FC Barcelona reveals that the club is tracking six young footballers for potential signings in the upcoming transfer windows. As reported by SPORT, Deco and Joao Amaral, responsible for scouting, have on their radar JJ Gabriel, Josh King, Arthur Dias, Eduardo Conceiçao, Gabriel Rajkovic, and Cavan Sullivan, all aged between 15 and 19 years old.

FC Barcelona aims to get ahead of other European clubs in acquiring talent before their valuation rises. However, the six operations face varying difficulties, from competition with teams like Real Madrid and Manchester United to contractual agreements that affect potential transfers.

This strategy has already been seen in the signings of Hamza Abdelkarim and Jesse Bisiwu, two investments in young players that align with the recruitment policy enforced by the sports management.

The three European prospects being monitored by FC Barcelona

JJ Gabriel, a 16-year-old forward from Manchester United, is generating significant interest. The player has not yet signed his first professional contract, and FC Barcelona is competing with Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and PSG for his recruitment.

His signing could reach up to 10 million euros including salary, fees, and compensation for a three-season contract. The player's entourage views a move to Spain favorably, although no decision has been made yet.

Another target is Josh King, a 19-year-old English attacking midfielder from Fulham. He has started the season with two goals in five games and over 400 minutes played under the guidance of Alvaro Arbeloa.

King's contract extends until 2029, while Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund, and Atletico Madrid are also monitoring his progress. Fulham is not considering facilitating his departure.

The third name is Gabriel Rajkovic, a 15-year-old forward from Vålerenga. The Norwegian, standing at 1.87 meters, became the youngest top scorer in his league at 15 years, five months, and 15 days.

The Barcelona scouts have observed him in person, although Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United have also shown interest in his development.

Arthur Dias and Eduardo Conceiçao, the Brazilian targets of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona also maintains a constant watch on the Brazilian market, where two standout players emerge.

The first is Arthur Dias, a left-footed center-back aged 19 from Athletico Paranaense. Standing at 1.88 meters, he captained Brazil in the 2025 under-20 South American championship and has already earned call-ups to Carlo Ancelotti's senior national team.

Joao Amaral traveled to Brazil to observe him directly, although there is no current offer from Barcelona.

The second player is Eduardo Conceiçao, a 16-year-old attacker from Palmeiras. Capable of playing as a winger, attacking midfielder, or striker, he has had discussions with Barcelona representatives.

However, economic demands and English competition have stalled a potential deal. The club continues to track his progress without resuming negotiations.

Cavan Sullivan, the most challenging operation for FC Barcelona

The final target is Cavan Sullivan, a 17-year-old American attacking midfielder from Philadelphia Union.

The player has gained prominence in MLS and made his debut with the senior United States national team, becoming their youngest scorer.

His signing faces a hurdle: Manchester City secured an agreement in 2024 to sign him when he turns 18 on September 28, 2027.

Therefore, FC Barcelona must evaluate which operations offer realistic possibilities before submitting proposals. Deco and Joao Amaral's priority will be to continue monitoring the six players and seize any contractual opportunities that arise in future transfer windows.
