FC Barcelona is keeping a close eye on Justin Ejodamen, one of Borussia Dortmund’s great hopes. According to Sportthe Catalan club already has first reports on the midfielder, who is only 15 years old, and has asked its recruiters to precisely follow his development, both with the BVB youth teams and with the Italian U16 selection. Born to Nigerian parents and also eligible for Germany, Ejodamen stands out with a very complete profile: great activity in the middle, technical qualities, mastery of the ball and ability to project and score. Some of his actions have already gone viral, including a goal scored from midfield.

Barça, however, is not alone on the file since Juventus and AC Milan are also said to be monitoring the young talent. No immediate operation is possible since the regulations require waiting until a Community player reaches at least 16 years of age to consider this type of international transfer. Barcelona therefore wishes above all to observe its progress before deciding to go further. An interest that reverses recent habits between the two clubs, Dortmund having regularly followed young talents from Catalan training. Relations between the two managements also remain good, a few months after the transfer of Karim Adeyemi to Barça.
