Barcelona complete signing of talented winger Erik Domínguez
Barcelona official confirm the arrival of the 16-year-old right winger who impressed at Cornellà's youth academy, joining the Juvenil B.
FC Barcelona have officially announced the signing of Erik Domínguez, a 16-year-old right winger who has impressed as a goalscorer in Cornellà's youth academy. The player will join Barcelona's Juvenil B team with the option to move up to Juvenil A depending on how he develops, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The deal comes after speculation in Catalan youth football circles about Domínguez joining the club due to his talent. José Ramon Alexanco, Barcelona's head of youth development, was present for the signing.
This represents Barcelona's second youth reinforcement, following Mahdi El Maimouni, a 17-year-old Belgian-Moroccan midfielder from Sporting Charleroi, who is regarded by several Belgian media outlets as one of the top talents of his generation. The club has also renewed contracts with around twenty academy players for the upcoming youth season.
