Fabio Blanco’s move to Barca didn’t work out in the summer. In the second attempt, the Blaugrana will now have success.
The Spanish junior international Fabio Blanco is leaving Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt apparently after six months. The Catalan Sports writes that the 17-year-old will move to FC Barcelona in January.
At the Blaugrana, Blanco is initially intended for coach Sergi Barjuan’s second team. He will sign a working paper dated until 2024 and only cost a small transfer fee. However, this could increase significantly if Blanco later developed well with the professionals.
FC Barcelona: Real Madrid also wanted Fabio Blanco
Last summer, Barca, as well as arch-rivals Real Madrid, Expressed interest in signing the attacking winger. At that time, however, Blanco decided on a free transfer from Valencia CF to SGE.
However, this change has so far turned out to be a misunderstanding: Blanco, who is under contract on the Main until 2023, does not get a chance with the professionals under Oliver Glasner, he refused to play in the U19s.
At Barca, Blanco now meets some companions. Jose Ramon Alexanco works there as the head of the youth department. He once brought him to Valencia too. With other young professionals like Gavi, Blanco has already played in Spain’s U18 team.
