Bayern Munich lead race to sign Barcelona teenager Adam Aznou

Talented 16-year-old La Masia graduate Adam Aznou is set to leave Barcelona for a move to Germany, according to AS via Mundo Deportivo.

Aznou, a rapid attack-minded left-back, is one of the jewels among La Masia’s ranks. The young full-back played for Barcelona’s Cadete A side in 2021/22, having made quite an impression. Many within the club view Aznou as a natural successor to Jordi Alba in the near future.

Barcelona’s future plans of integrating Aznou to their Juvenil B side have been put on hold, as the player’s family consider Barça’s financial offer insufficient. They’ve set their sights abroad, with offers from Germany being considered.

As per the latest report by Mundo Deportivo, Bayern Munich are the front-runners for Aznou, having overtaken other suitors, namely Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Juventus and Benfica. 

In moving to Germany, Aznou would follow the footsteps of fellow La Masia graduate Iker Bravo, who joined Bayer Leverkusen last summer.
