FC Barcelona can breathe a sigh of relief with the signing of striker Hamza Abdelkarim (18 years old). According to sources at the club, the deal was finalized on Thursday. It's a loan for the Al-Ahly forward until the end of the season, with an option to buy for no more than €3 million, although that amount could rise to €5 million with performance-related bonuses.

In recent days, the two clubs have been formalizing their verbal agreements into contracts, but this Thursday the entire process was completed. Now, the clubs must make the official announcement, and Hanza will travel to Barcelona to undergo the necessary medical exams before joining Barça Atlètic.

    Always all for the plan before the full purchase. Given our splurging history it makes more sense for a loan trial.

  2. Brilliant move. 

    Most fans look at the here and now and on pitch only. I know many African supporters of Bundesliga who love the league because they give spotlights and opportunities to African players (they love Lewa as he was king of BL to them). Similar to Barcelona fans in… Argentina and Brazil. Poland starting Barça academies, etc. Creating dreams for young players in certain areas is not unwise. 

    This is a way to profit the club over time without selling the soul. And is a bonus multiplier for a deal on an inexpensive, young player with high potential. 

     But also research football in his region. His club. What they’ve done before. Who they are. How kids grow up with the game there. 

    If you’ve never seen kids have their ball ruptured by a sniper and merely roll up shirts and continue playing, blessings to you. Imagine the same going about life as revolutionaries off the pitch. 

    Many of you talk about love and heart and fire. We might see much of that pour into Barça here.
