Renowned superagent adds another Barcelona’s La Masia gem under his wing – report

Jorge Mendes, one of the most influential agents in football, has added another promising Barcelona talent from La Masia to his roster. According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, Mendes has now taken 12-year-old Adam Qaroual under his wing. 

Qaroual, who plays for Barcelona’s U-13 team, has already made a name for himself with his impressive skills and vision on the pitch, making him a standout player in La Masia.

Mendes, known for managing top football stars, has kept a close eye on La Masia in recent years, recognising the potential of its young talents. 

His client list already includes several Barcelona players like Ansu Fati, Alejandro Balde, Nico Gonzalez, Lamine Yamal, and Guille Fernandez. Now, Adam Qaroual joins this prestigious group of youngsters.

Who is Adam Qaroual?

Adam Qaroual is an attacking midfielder who currently competes in the children’s First Division. 

His ball control and playmaking abilities are notable, and he has formed a strong offensive partnership with Moha Akhomach, the younger brother of Villarreal player Ilias Akhomach. 

Mendes has been closely monitoring Qaroual’s development and has already built a strong relationship with his family, offering guidance and support.

In a personal gesture, Mendes even sent Adam a Cristiano Ronaldo shirt, further indicating his commitment to nurturing the youngster’s career. 

Adam’s natural talent, combined with his striking appearance, particularly his afro hairstyle, has also made him popular on social media, where his football videos have gained attention.

He is a truly versatile player with three nationalities. Born in Monchengladbach, Germany, to Moroccan parents, he is eligible to represent Germany, Morocco, or Spain at the international level. 

He joined Barcelona in 2023, having previously played for PSV Eindhoven. With Mendes now advising him, Qaroual’s future looks incredibly bright as he continues his journey through the ranks of La Masia.
