15-year-old Barcelona gem among six youth talents Xavi has called up to training

With the international break underway, Barcelona have as many as ten players away on international duty while six stars are currently recuperating from injury problems.

As such, manager Xavi Hernandez has had to call up players from the youth and reserve ranks to join the handful of first-team stars in training session today.

Guille Fernandez training with first team

And, Mundo Deportivo is reporting that Xavi has called up 15-year-old Barcelona wonderkid Guille Fernandez to train with the senior players along with five other youth talents from the club’s ranks.

Born on June 18, 2008, Guille Fernandez is already a part of Barça’s Juvenil sides despite being in the age group of Cadete teams.

In fact, the young attacking midfielder has already played twice in the UEFA Youth League for the Under-19 side, showcasing the faith that those within the club have in him and the promise he has displayed.

Much like this season’s breakout star Lamine Yamal, Guille Fernandez is also represented by superagent Jorge Mendes.

Who else has been called up?

Apart from the 15-year-old wonderkid Guille Fernandez, Xavi has also called upon Pau Victor and Marc Guiu, the Barça Atletic strikers who were also a part of the matchday squad against Granada this past Sunday.

Meanwhile, defensive prospect Pau Cubarsi, who could be in line for a squad call-up in the absence of Jules Kounde, is also training with the senior setup today.

Rounding up the list are midfielder Unai Hernandez and goalkeeper Áron Yaakobishvili.
