FC Barcelona are interested in young Belgian winger Jesse Bisiwu, who recently took part in the UEFA Youth League. Club representatives were recently spotted in Switzerland for the Final Four, specifically keeping tabs on the 18-year-old Club Brugge winger during the final against Real Madrid at the Stade de la Tuilière.

It was a bit of a frustrating outing for those looking to see him in action, though, as Bisiwu barely touched the pitch in a game that eventually went to penalties in favor of the Merengues. It’s not the first time the club has watched Bisiwu, though. Sporting director Deco and scouting head João Amaral reportedly traveled to back in January and have continued to track him. That trip involved meetings with the player’s representative and his family. While his agent, Mobindi Marthi, was vocal about the interest shortly after that trip, the message coming out of the club has been a bit more measured.
