Barcelona has secured the right to buy two great Brazilian talents playing at Santos who, although young, have already earned a good career in professional football. They are Kaiki, the 18-year-old defender, and Angelo, the 17-year-old winger.
There was a conflict in the offices between the Sao Paulo team and the Catalan team, and the current board of directors of Sao Paulo was forced to search for this solution to avoid a new penalty from FIFA that would prevent them from signing, as happened in previous markets, and the problem is due to the fact that Santos did not respect the option to buy was Barcelona owned it for striker Gabriel Barbosa “Gajipol” at that time and with this agreement they avoided paying 3 million euros and the legal problem was resolved.
For the team led by Xavi Hernandez, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire two talents with a massive drop and a good present, as they showed last season. An undisputed regular, both in Brazil and in the Copa Libertadores, Kaiki was distinguished by his speed and power in the air. From his inception, he has shown tremendous maturity on the field and has not been burdened with matches of great importance at the continental level.
On the other hand, Angelo is a skilled and daring footballer who has a lot of goals even though he prefers to play close to the wing. In fact, he managed to score at a younger age than Pele in a Santos jersey. The talented soccer player who won’t come of age until December had more trouble adding minutes in the final phase of the season, but he’s always been bold on the pitch, breaking high pace in the final counters.
