FC Barcelona continues to explore the market in search of strategic reinforcements for the future, Deco has two promising players on his radar who are shining in European soccer. These are young players with potential who could fit into the blaugrana's medium and long-term plans. The Catalan club, constrained by its financial situation, is forced to look for market opportunities that don't require a large outlay.
In this context, the sports management focuses on players with growth potential, who can be acquired at an affordable price before their value skyrockets. In recent months, several names have been linked to Barça, but there are two footballers who have particularly caught the attention of the blaugrana scouts. Both have stood out in foreign leagues and represent interesting profiles to reinforce key positions in Hansi Flick's team.

One of them is a forward who has burst onto the European soccer scene, seen as a player who could succeed Lewandowski. After a loan spell at Alavés where he left a good impression, this summer he made the leap to a major league, where he has continued to grow. His evolution has not gone unnoticed and has attracted the interest of several top-tier clubs.
An Important Forward and Center-Back
In addition to his performance at clubs, his role with the Spanish national team has been crucial for his projection. He won the gold medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics and demonstrated that he has the character and quality needed to succeed at the elite level. However, his original club didn't bet on him and ended up selling him to a foreign team.
The other footballer Barça is closely following is a center-back with a unique story. Born in the Netherlands but raised in Spain from a young age, he developed his soccer skills in Italy before landing in the Premier League. His talent and maturity have surprised everyone, making him one of the great revelations of the season.
Who Are They?
The players in question are Samu Aghehowa and Dean Huijsen, the forward, currently plays for Porto. He has proven to be a striker with great physicality, speed, and scoring ability, and his adaptation to Portuguese soccer has been excellent. His progression places him on the radar of several major European clubs, Samu Aghehowa has scored 18 goals in 26 matches and has already debuted with the Spanish national team.
On the other hand, Huijsen has established himself at Iraola's Bournemouth in the Premier League after his stints with Juventus and Roma. At 19 years old, he is a center-back with good ball distribution, defensive solidity, and a bright future ahead. His dual nationality makes him an attractive profile for Barça, which seeks to strengthen its defense with young players who have room for improvement.
Deco closely follows the evolution of both and the club doesn't rule out attempting to sign them in the future. With the need to plan for the long term, Barça maintains its policy of betting on young talents who can make a significant difference in the coming years.
