Barcelona has successfully completed its second signing of the current summer transfer window, according to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano.
The Catalan club had previously signed Joan Garcia from Espanyol for €25 million and is also working on completing a deal for Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao.
The new deal, which can be considered a success, is for young Swedish player Roony Bardghji from Copenhagen, nicknamed the “Swedish Messi.”
Barcelona reached an agreement with the Danish club to sign Bardghji for only €2.5 million, taking advantage of the fact that his contract was due to expire next January.
Barcelona and Copenhagen agreed that the Danish club would receive 15% of the 18-year-old’s future sale price.
Bardghji , of Syrian origin, plays on the right wing and is initially expected to be a replacement for Lamine Yamal next season.
Porto were the most interested in signing Bardghji and the Portuguese club made an official offer to him, but he ultimately decided to join Hansi Flick’s squad.
