Barcelona invite young Polish striker to train at La Masia – report | OneFootball

Barcelona’s reputation for identifying and nurturing young talent continues to grow, and a new name has now entered the conversation. 

According to a recent report from SPORT, the club has invited young Polish footballer Kajetan Goral to train at Barcelona’s famed academy, La Masia. 

The news was highlighted by FutValley, who framed the moment as the reward for years of dedication behind the scenes. 

“It is the result of years of work, passion, sacrifices and faith in the process,” they said.

It is said that Goral has already begun adapting to football in Catalonia. Since moving to the region with his family, he has been playing for CE Mercantil’s youth team. 

He featured in several matches and was named MVP in December during a tournament held in Cambrils, where Mercantil finished as runners-up. 

Statistically, in just nine games for Mercantil, the young striker has scored eight goals and as expected, Barcelona are not the only club monitoring his progress.

According to Polish media, both Villarreal and Espanyol have also invited him to take part in training sessions. 

La Masia, meanwhile, already has Polish representation. One of the most well-known cases is Michal Zuk, who opted to represent Spain at the youth level. 

For now, Kajetan Goral’s focus is on making the most of this opportunity. He has been invited to train with Barcelona players of his own age group, an experience few young footballers ever get. 

FutValley summed up the moment by saying, “Kajetan got an invite to train with FC Barcelona, which is considered the best football academy in the world.” 

They added further context to his journey, stating, “For Kajetan, this is another step on his great football journey. 

“For us, it is a source of enormous pride and confirmation that what we do makes sense. Congratulations. This is just the beginning,” they added.
