The 18-year-old winger, who was introduced a few months ago as a new player at Barcelona B, has been in a state of unrivaled sporting euphoria since his arrival from German club Eintracht Frankfurt.

And the player Fabio Blanco joined Barcelona in the last winter transfer season, and is linked to a contract with the Catalan team that ends in 2024, and he will receive a termination clause of 100 million euros.

The young winger, who trained in Valencia, has appeared with three goals in his last two matches and, along with Gottila, has led Barcelona’s reaction B which hasn’t scored two wins in a row since November.

Barcelona B confirmed their reaction on Sunday against Betis reserves, adding their second win in a row, something they haven’t achieved since November.

Two names led this brilliance to Barcelona’s reserve, one is Ferran Gutgla with 5 goals in the last seven games, and the other is Fabio Blanco, one of the winter signings and two months after his debut he is already a decisive player, as he was a hero in these last two victories.

Two rounds ago, Blanco scored two goals against Cornella (2-1) and last Sunday scored the goal that gave Sergei Barguan’s men the three points before the end of the first half (1-2).

Three goals in the past two rounds and in six games in total, three of them in starters, underscores the emergence of the 18-year-old Andalusian right winger, one of the jewels of Spanish football formed at Valencia’s youth academy.

Blanco was contested by many of the greats of Europe, including Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and even Bayern Munich, who surprised them all last summer by choosing Eintracht Frankfurt, who left them with the freedom card.

And there he did not make his first appearance in the first team and last January the Blaugrana club moved on the recommendation of Matteo Alemani, who knew him well from his stage in Valencia, and also from Jose Ramon Alisanco, who is responsible for youth football, and Barcelona continued in the transfer process without specifying the amount. The fixed amount is low And variables can increase its value.

Currently in Barcelona B, Fabio Blanco has started knocking on the door of the first team after showing his quality and ability to overtake, and he is a regular in the lower categories of the Spanish national team where he also showed his talent.

He has often been compared to Ferran Torres, with whom he shares the same acting agency, Leaderbrock – also Pedri – who are also friends. He even trained alongside the former City player this summer in his home gym.

It would come as no surprise that, in the fairly near future, Blanco would work with Ferran again, but this time on the pitch at the Camp Nou under Xavi.
