The impact that have had has been tremendo and varied of them have had a prolonged impact in the team. The most recent case is the one of Lamine Yamal, but also have existed several players that, to very early age, have added key opportunities.

The record of precocity has it Lamine Yamal, precisely. It achieved it on 29 April 2023, against the Real Betis in the Camp Nou, with 15 years and 290 days. Since, it has given steps of giants until the point to turn into an indisputable player in the plans of Xavi Hernández. With 16 years, is called to mark the difference on a long-term basis.

It was in promotion very soon, but did not have the continuity that expected .

The 'top-3' closes it Pau Cubarsí (16, 361 d) that is being the big illusion of the barcelonismo to defensive level and that, since it debuted the past 18 January against Unionistas, in the Glass of Rey, has left very good feelings and has cost him to add his first announcement with the absolute selection of Spain.
