Talent-snatchers! Barca in talks with Bayern's most talented youngster

Barcelona are boasting some of the best young talents in world football. They've got Pedri, Gavi, Ansu Fati, Ez Abde, Nico Gonzalez and a few more, but they are never satisfied. They want to add more young talent. One way is to develop players from a very early age - and another is to lure promising youngsters away from other clubs. That's what they're set to do with Bayern's attacking midfielder Kenan Yildiz.

According to Sky Sports Germany, Barca are negotiating with the 16-year-old's representatives over a transfer that should go through at the end of the season. It's looking like a top-level operation. Yildiz is represented by the same agency that is working with Barca's players Pedri and Ferran. The Catalans want to use that connection to facilitate Yildiz's arrival.

Yildiz has been on Bayern's books for two years after joining from his hometown club Regensburg. His progress in the Bayern academy saw him play for teams above his age group. The kid is a prodigy! Although born in Germany, Yildiz is of Turkish descent and will has already played for Turkey's youth national sides. However, he remains eligible to play for both countries at the senior level in the future. For the time being, his biggest decision is going to be whether he'll strive to play at Allianz Arena or Camp Nou.

Should this future star of world football decide to make the move to Spain, he'd begin training at the famed La Masia and will have a chance to impress Sergi Barjuan, the coach of Barcelona's B team.
