Up next for FC Barcelona is a La Liga outing against Valencia at the Montjuic Stadium. While La Liga may feel like it has been lost already, other objectives remain very much alive. However, to ensure that those objectives are met, Barcelona need all their firepower at its best.

As Barcelona continue to train, new young faces also emerge. Xavi Hernandez is rather popular with the quarry for this reason, and his dependence on the youth of Barcelona is a welcome addition that has been praised during his time as the team’s head coach.

The latest training session ended up being no different from the Barcelona manager. Just as he has trusted other youngsters in the past, the Spaniard has now called upon even more new names to help out with the first-team training.

As highlighted by SPORT, the three players in question all arrive from Juvenil B. Three students of Pol Planes, every single one of them brings a different quality to the first team training and has possibly managed to catch Xavi’s eye for different reasons.

The first addition of the three is Leo Saca, who was born in 2007 and plays as a central defender. Belonging to the same generation as that of Pau Cubarsi, the youngster is highlighted for having developed great defensive consistency and reliability under the tutelage of Pol Planes this season. He has also already represented Moldova, his home country, at the Under-21 level.

Another addition to the latest training session was Wesley. Born in 2006, the Spanish-Brazilian midfielder is a player of great qualities as well. In fact, his abilities have caught the eye of coaches at the National level and he has already represented Spain at the Under-19 level.

The final addition to the first team training is that of Manu Vila, another talent born in 2006. Able to play as an interior and also as a false winger, he is reportedly praised for his passing vision and range, especially the accuracy of his distribution. He is noted for not exactly being a standout performer, but his consistency is what makes him so special.
