Here's the squad of Barca's B team. We'll see if some of these guys end up in Miami. Oier Olazábal Paredes Portero 14-09-89 Rubén Miño Peralta Portero 18-01-89 Alberto Tomás Botía Rabasco Defensa 27-01-89 Jonathan López Rodríguez 'Joni' Defensa 17-04-87 David Córcoles Alcaraz Defensa 08-05-85 Víctor Manuel Espasandín Facal Defensa 16-03-85 José Antonio Solano Moreno Defensa 04-02-85 Héctor Verdés Ortega Defensa 24-06-84 Xavier Torres Buigues Centrocampista 21-11-86 Andreu Fontàs Prat Centrocampista 14-11-89 José Manuel Rueda Sampedro Centrocampista 30-01-88 Sergi Busquets Burgos Centrocampista 16-07-88 Thiago Alcántara Do Nascimiento Centrocampista 11-04-91 Abraham González Casanovas Centrocampista 16-07-85 Antonio Longás Ferrer Centrocampista 24-08-84 Víctor Vázquez Solsona Delantero 20-01-87 Manuel Agudo Duran 'Nolito' Delantero 15-10-86 Jeffren Isaas Suárez Bermúdez Delantero 20-01-88 Rubén Rayos Serna 'Rayo' Delantero 21-06-86 Gai Yigaal Assulin Delantero 09-04-91 Goran Maric Govorcin Delantero 23-03-84 Of these names, Jeffren (of Venezuelan descent) and Assulin are two of the most promising. Busquets would be off hands as he's already featuring in the first team. Chip in if you know about the others.
i think it would be great for mls if some of these guys did come over, but to be honest i cant see it happening. a loan deal to the segundo division or even a less competitive la liga team would be more useful for the parent club imo.
There is no doubt that Miami will play some of the players on the Barca reserve team. They will mostly likely come on loan. But one thing is if they start rocking MLS. dont expect them to stay because then Barca will give them first team play. That is the whole point of loaning players out.
True, but the same sort of thing would eventually happen to any great young guys anyway. Once they become too good for MLS teams to afford, they'll move to Europe, at least for the foreseeable future anyways(until MLS raises the cap or adds more D.P. slots). Miami sports fans are used to that sort of thing with the Marlins, so let's just hope Barça has scouts as good as the Fish do for replacing young talent with more young talent.
