Barcelona already working on renewing three teenage breakout stars - report

FC Barcelona is prioritizing contract renewals for three teenage breakout stars: Marc Bernal, Hamza Abdelkarim, and Xavi Espart. The club aims to secure these players' futures following the conclusion of the summer transfer window.
Why it matters
Securing young talent is essential for the long-term financial and competitive stability of major football clubs like Barcelona.
FC Barcelona closed the summer transfer window on Tuesday with several new signings while also bidding goodbye to a number of players from the senior team as well as the youth setup.
With the window now closed, sporting director Deco now has a clear picture of the club’s Financial Fair Play situation.
Now, the sporting department can turn its attention to another priority: securing the futures of several key young players.
Barcelona deliberately avoided opening renewal negotiations while the market was open, with the focus being on completing their transfer operations. That changes now.
Indeed, according to MARCA , the Catalans’ immediate priority is to renew the contracts of three teenage starlets: Marc Bernal, Hamza Abdelkarim and Xavi Espart.
