FC Barcelona has been known to produce talented young footballers over the years. La Masia is arguably the best football academy in the world, and it continues to produce young talent. This season, FC Barcelona has needed to rely on their youngsters as the team suffered many injuries, and the club can't afford to buy world-class players in the transfer windows. Players like Lamine Yamal have carried the team on their backs with their consistently great performances on the pitch. While Yamal is getting the most recognition from the Barcelona youngsters in the squad, others are praising another youngster for his defensive work.
