Barcelona agree deal for 16-year-old Mikael Baza, signs in 24 hours
Fabrizio Romano reports Barcelona have a deal for 16-year-old defender Mikael Baza from Hamburg, with a contract running to 2029.
Barcelona have agreed a deal to sign Mikael Baza, a 16-year-old defender from Hamburg, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The next step is straightforward: Baza will sign his contract tomorrow after the agreement is completed with his agent, Pini Zahavi. His medical has also reportedly been scheduled, as Sky Sport DE has reported.
A deal through 2029
The contract is set to run until 2029, and Baza will join Barça AtlÚtic rather than the first team.
The report also includes a family detail: the young defender is Jonathan Tahâs cousin.
With the deal already reached, the remaining question is simply timingâconfirmation after the signing and the medical results. If those final steps go to plan, the move gives Barcelona another long-term prospect within their youth and reserve setup.
