Jan Virgili shines in the Under-20 final and Barça faces a dilemma: what will happen to him?

The Maracanã was amazed by the performance of Jan Virgili. The ‘7’ had a good performance on the right wing and, with the arrival of Sama Nomoko, finished the match on the left side. Barça U-20 could not win the trophy in Brazil against Flamengo, but left a good impression.

Jan Virgili scored a great goal to tie the match, after eluding the defender and the goalkeeper of the carioca team, where he demonstrated his dribbling skills.  Despite not winning the title, the 19-year-old winger surprised locals and strangers alike.

Jan Virgili has a contract with Barça until 2027

Barça is a team that has always been concerned about the development of its players so that they can make their debut in the first team. Those who have not been able to establish themselves in the professional team of the blaugrana team seek a destination that can guarantee them minutes and a leading role.

In March, Jan Virgili extended his contract with Barça until June 2027, being a show of support from the blaugrana club. The native of Vilassar del Mar played 17 matches with Barça Atlètic in the last year and scored 4 goals. Next season he will play in the Segunda RFEF, a category that may be too small for him if he demonstrates a similar performance to the one seen on Brazilian soil.

Almería and Mallorca are after Jan Virgili

Not only Hansi Flick has been keeping an eye on Jan Virgili's performance in the Juvenil A and FC Barcelona Atlètic, but also Almería and Mallorca. The winger has been liked by Flick, but he still believes that he must await his debut in the first team.

One of the proposals that Barça has had with both the Vermellones and the Andalusians is that the club that wants Virgili must pay 4 million euros and retain 50% of a future sale. After the Intercontinental, the player from Vilassar will have plenty of offers and that is where the azulgrana team will seek to finalize a good sale.
