Barcelona signs Moroccan footballer Mahdi Al-Maimouni to the La Masia academy
Barcelona club successfully reached an agreement to sign Moroccan-born player Mehdi Maimouni from Belgian academy Charleroi, to join the La Masia academy in preparation for future stages in his football career. Maimouni, born in 2009, is considered one of the brightest young talents to emerge from the Belgian club’s youth ranks. He is known for his ability to play in multiple midfield positions and his calmness in ball possession, which has led to comparisons with Barcelona legend Sergio Busquets. Barcelona completed the transfer procedures after monitoring him for nearly two years, despite interest from other clubs such as Eindhoven and several English teams. The player’s final national team choice remains uncertain, as he holds Moroccan roots but has progressed through Belgian youth national teams. Barcelona is betting on his development within La Masia, which has produced many football stars, and hopes that Maimouni will have a big future with the first team.
