Barcelona youth talent spotted in first-team training before Atlético
An up-and-coming member of the goalkeeper ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona was afforded the chance to impress as part of first-team training on Saturday.
The player in question? Max Bonfill.
Bonfill, for his part, is a highly-regarded 18-year-old shot-stopper, who is currently plying his trade with Barcelona’s U19s.
Amid a shortage of options between the posts at youth level in Catalunya’s capital at present, owing chiefly to injury, the Spaniard was afforded a first-ever call-up to senior training earlier this week.
And Bonfill evidently did enough to impress Hansi Flick and his coaching staff.
This comes amid confirmation that the youngster was drafted in once again on Saturday, featuring alongside Wojciech Szczęsny and Iñaki Peña at The Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
As much comes amid ongoing preparations for Barca’s final pre-international break outing, against Atlético Madrid on Sunday night.
It now remains to be seen if Bonfill has done enough to earn a call-up for the fixture.
