Barcelona expect teenage winger to arrive in the coming days to finalise €10m transfer

Barcelona expect teenage winger to arrive in the coming days to finalise €10m transfer FC Barcelona are preparing to complete the arrival of one of their most exciting long-term investments, with Jesse Bisiwu expected to arrive in the city over the coming days, repors SPORT . The 18-year-old winger is set to join from Club Brugge after months of negotiations , with Barça agreeing a deal worth €10 million plus 30% of any future transfer profit. The move is considered one of sporting director Deco’s strongest bets for the future. Barcelona’s recruitment team had been monitoring Bisiwu for some time after scout Joao Amaral identified both the player’s talent and his contractual situation during 2025. With Bisiwu refusing to extend his contract, which was due to expire in June 2027, Club Brugge eventually found themselves in a weakened negotiating position and chose to agree a transfer rather than risk seeing his value decline.

However, the Belgian youngster is also expected to train regularly with the first team from the outset and could even join Hansi Flick’s squad during the pre-season training camp at St George’s Park in England. Flick will closely monitor his progress before deciding when he is ready to make the permanent step into the senior side. Barcelona beat Premier League competition As per the report, Bisiwu made it clear that Barcelona was his preferred destination despite attracting interest from several Premier League clubs. His final season at Club Brugge proved difficult, with injuries limiting his development, while his refusal to sign a new contract also affected his playing time. Even so, Barcelona remained convinced of his potential. The deal represents a significant financial commitment for such a young player, underlining the club’s confidence in his long-term development.

How does Bisiwu play? Bisiwu is a quick, direct right winger who thrives in one-on-one situations. Standing at 1.86 metres, he combines pace with long strides and strong physical attributes, while also possessing the technical ability to beat defenders and create danger in wide areas. His style has already drawn comparisons with former Barcelona star and Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele, whose explosive dribbling and attacking flair made him one of Europe’s most exciting young wingers before establishing himself among the elite. Barcelona now hope Bisiwu can follow a similarly successful path as he begins his journey at the club.
