Barcelona youngster fires warning to Real Madrid before El Clásico

A member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona has this week fired a warning message the way of arch rivals, Real Madrid.

This of course comes amid Barca’s ongoing preparations for a trip to the Santiago Bernabéu.

The headline fixture of the Spanish football calendar is set to play out this coming weekend.

As much will see Xabi Alonso’s Real Madrid act as hosts, in a La Liga showdown with Hansi Flick’s reigning champions, Barcelona.

Historic rivalries aside, the two sides enter the matchup separated by just two points in the Spanish top-flight table.

As things stand, it is Sunday’s hosts who boast the advantage.

And individual adamant that Barcelona will make the trip to the Bernabéu with sights on all three points is Blaugrana starlet Marc Bernal.

Speaking during an interview with Betevé, as cited by Mundo Deportivo, on Thursday, midfielder Bernal assured:

“We’re not afraid of Real Madrid. We will go to the Bernabeu to win.”
