Barcelona remain committed to signing foreign talents despite winter transfer setbacks

Barcelona are not backing away from their long-term recruitment strategy, even after a difficult spell with recent youth signings.

According to SPORT, the club remain fully committed to identifying and developing young foreign talent, with plans already in motion to bring in more prospects from across the world.

The latest update comes despite a frustrating outcome from the winter transfer window.

Barcelona invested in several young players from abroad, including Hamza Abdelkarim, Juwensley Onstein, Patricio Pacifico and Ajay Tavares.

Failing to make an impact

As such, none of those additions have made the expected impact so far, largely due to ongoing fitness problems.

Among them, Patricio Pacifico initially showed the most promise. He adapted quickly and looked set to establish himself within the youth setup.

But his progress was halted by a serious knee injury, later confirmed to be a cruciate ligament issue, which is a major setback for both the player and the club.
