Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that Juvenil A attacking midfielder and Spanish youth international Iago Falqué (18), who started the pre-season with Barcelona Atlètic (previously known as Barcelona B), has been told yesterday morning by coach Luis Enrique that he's not part of next season's plans (read more here).

is it just me or does our club treat the youth players a little careless... i would prefer if they would hold on to their bigger talents like crosas, assaulin, and even dos santos... sadly i feel like their letting some of their future stars slip away. on a side note, sevilla seems to sweep up a lot of our youths... just my thoughts
You can't keep them all, of course.
And if Luis Enrique thinks it's better for the kid to go and play one season on loan because he won't have enough playing time with Barça B and he is too old for Juvenil A, then it could be the right thing to do.
He is obviously not a superstar if he cant make the b team at 18... no matter how many players you have in front of you if you are that good... you can make the b team at least !
