Barcelona watching Chucky

close >

In recent weeks, FC Barcelona have intensified their follow-up to Ivan San Jose “Choke”, the midfielder of the youth “A” team in Valladolid who has just turned 17.

The striker has made great progress and in Barcelona they care about the player position. Barcelona’s difficult economic situation prompts the entity to bet on young talent in an attempt to replicate the success he achieved with the signing of Pedri.

Despite the fact that Chucki is still young in the first year, the midfielder is already a staple of Valladolid’s youth team, a team led by former Brazilian player Giulio Baptista.

This Saturday, in a match against Atlético de Madrid, Chucki scored a superb goal, which postponed the title win to Atlético. Self-confidence and the quality he enjoys makes him the number one star in Team Baptista.

Last season, Chucky scored 21 goals and this season his development has not only been stunted, but he has been highlighted as well. Chucki started the season with the youth B team, but the opportunity soon came to him with youth A, an opportunity the player seized so much that it took him very few weeks to find a starting place in the youth team.

Chucky, whose ability to navigate lines and ability to score, is attracting the attention of many big clubs, who are increasingly eager to sign the young superstar before his explosion.
