Barcelona can permanently sign promising 21-year-old attacker for €3 million

A series of injuries this season has forced Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez to call up a few young players ahead of the game against Granada this evening.

One of them is Pau Victor, a Barça Atletic player currently on loan from Girona. The young attacker was roped in following the injury of Robert Lewandowski, who looks all set to miss the upcoming game against Real Madrid later this month.

Barcelona can sign Pau Victor permanently for €3 million

Pau Victor joined Barça Athletic on a loan deal until the end of the season. But as reported by SPORT, Barcelona should not have much problem signing him on a permanent deal.

As per the report, Pau Victor will be available for just €3 million come the end of the season, which should not be problematic for the club.

The Spaniard, therefore, has a real chance of becoming a first-team player for Barça next season, especially if he can continue his rapid growth in the reserve squad.

Pau Victor’s rise to prominence

Pau Victor’s career trajectory is quite similar to Fermin Lopez. The youngster is predominantly a product of the Girona youth academy.

But after failing to make his presence felt for the Catalan outfit, he joined Sabadell on loan last summer. It turned out to be a wise move, as the youngster was involved in 13 goals last season.

After returning to Girona this summer, Victor ventured on another loan spell – this time joining Barça Atletic. He hasn’t failed to impress either, racking up four goals and one assist for the reserve side so far this season, and is their top scorer.

Pau Victor’s impressive performances have earned him a call-up to the squad ahead of the Granada game later this evening and if everything goes well, he could make his debut for Barcelona today.
