The young winger of Catalonia’s renowned club “Barcelona,” Jan Virgili, has been deprived of the opportunity to start the season with the first team this summer. According to the club’s official information, head coach Hans-Dieter Flick did not include the talented footballer in the squad for the Asia tour, and this decision sparked various opinions among football fans.
Due to Flick’s choice, Jan Virgili was not given the chance to prove himself in the first team and compete for a spot in the squad. Taking advantage of this situation, La Liga’s “Mallorca” and “Girona” clubs started negotiations to bring in the young attacker on loan. Sport.es reports that “Mallorca’s” management has officially approached “Barcelona” with an offer to loan the player with an option to buy later.
In this situation, “Mallorca’s” head coach Jagoba Arrasate personally called Jan Virgili and spoke openly about the role he would have in the team. This is said to give the footballer even more confidence and could open new opportunities for him.
Jan Virgili joined Barcelona’s system in 2024 and last season played for the club’s second team in all competitions, participating in 17 matches, scoring 4 goals, and providing 2 assists. Each of his actions and scoring episodes were highly valued by experts and scouts.
Fans and the football community are eagerly waiting to see in which club Jan Virgili will play in the new season, and which club will help him fully unlock his potential. The young winger’s future development depends on the experience he will gain from the loan and how he will prove himself in the new team.
It is worth noting that showing oneself in Barcelona’s squad is not easy for any young player, as competition in the club is very strong. Jan Virgili now has to look for a new path for his professional development.
