RCD Mallorca wants to continue 'fishing' at FC Barcelona after taking Pablo Torre. The team led by Jagoba Arrasate has set its sights on one of the greatest talents of La Masía and would like to bet heavily on him.
According to rumors, the player in question is Jan Virgili, who was training with the first team of the Azulgrana team under the orders of Hansi Flick. However, he returned to the dynamics of Barça Atlètic, as he will not participate in the Asian tour.
Since his arrival for the 2024/25 season, from Nàstic de Tarragona, Virgili has not stopped growing. Under the direction of Juliano Belletti in Juvenil A, he has been a key player in a historic year, contributing decisively to the conquest of the League, the Copa del Rey and the UEFA Youth League.
This has earned him the interest of the 'vermellón' team to incorporate him for the next year, in addition to being well positioned to achieve its goal. Although the player has a contract with Barça until 2027, the value of his termination clause is unknown. However, Transfermarkt indicates that it has a price of 3 million euros.
Barça considers a strategic exit for Jan Virgili
In this context, the sports management of Barça would be evaluating the possibility of a loan for the 18-year-old left winger, with the aim of continuing his progression.
The priority until now would be to find a first division team where he can play quality minutes, face the competitive rhythm of the elite and continue growing in a demanding environment.
Thus, although there would be several interested clubs, the one that has most demonstrated the desire to acquire the services of the player would be Mallorca. Barça, for its part, wants to ensure that the next step in his career is the most appropriate to consolidate everything he has shown so far.
Virgili, without a place in the first team of Barça
It could be said that the arrival of Marcus Rashford altered the plans for Jan Virgili, since there was the possibility that, if no consolidated left winger arrived, both the native of Villassar de Mar and Dani Rodríguez could compete for a place in the first team.
However, Rashford is already a Barça player and in this way removes room for incorporations from the blaugrana subsidiary. Of course, the speed, technique and confidence of Virgili are very well valued by the coach Hansi Flick.
It should be noted that, in total, he has played 33 games with the Barça youth team, scoring 7 goals and 3 assists, figures that reflect his impact on the team. His performance has not gone unnoticed, earning him the jump to the subsidiary, where he already has 17 games and 4 goals, consolidating himself as one of the most promising players in the blaugrana academy.
