Barcelona Eye Move for Red Bull Salzburg Wonderkid as Youth Recruitment Drive Continues

Barcelona are keeping tabs on teenage Red Bull Salzburg forward Karim Ademeyi, according to reports in Spain.

The 17-year-old currently plies his trade in Austria's second division for Red Bull's sister club FC Liefering, and has represented Germany at both Under-16 and Under-17 level.

Fellow Salzburg youngster, and teenage sensation, Erling Braut Håland has already been touted as a potential target for Barça, but it's claimed by Mundo Deportivo that the Catalan giants may have their eye on Ademeyi instead, despite interest from elsewhere.

The reigning La Liga champions have recently focused their recruitment on signing younger players to integrate and learn in their famed La Masia academy.
