Barcelona rubbing their hands as youngster’s value shoots up following impressive displays at U19 Euros | OneFootball

Barcelona youngster Noah Darvich is making headlines once again, but not necessarily for his performances in Spain.

While the 18-year-old midfielder has seen limited action with Barça Atletic, his stock continues to rise, especially after a standout performance in the U19 European Championship for Germany.

In a thrilling 5-5 draw against England, Darvich was one of the standout players on the pitch. He registered a goal and an assist, and his overall numbers were equally impressive.

The German midfielder completed 92% of his passes, maintained 100% accuracy on long runs and crosses, and showed the kind of composure and quality rarely seen at his age.

Rising stocks

His display did not go unnoticed, with reports from SPORT suggesting that Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are both keeping a close eye on his situation.

Despite not featuring much at club level in the youth academy, Darvich has been an important figure every time he has put on the German shirt, and that hasn’t gone unnoticed by first-team manager Hansi Flick, who is said to rate the youngster very highly.

Uncertain future at Barça

Despite his promise, Darvich’s future at Barcelona is uncertain. The club’s midfield is already stacked, and breaking into the first team will be no easy task, especially with names like Pedri, Gavi, and Frenkie de Jong ahead of him.

That, along with his limited involvement in Barça Atletic, has sparked rumours of a possible exit this summer.

Barcelona, however, are not planning to let him go without a transfer fee. The teenager joined the Catalans from Freiburg for a fee of €2.5 million, and the club believes that his current performances could help them recoup that amount or even earn a profit if he is sold.

As things stand, Darvich has a contract until 2026, but the coming weeks could prove decisive. Whether he stays or leaves, it is clear that his talent is attracting serious attention across Europe.
