Barcelona will almost certainly sell or loan Sergi Samper after the capture of Paulinho from Guangzhou Evergrande. Samper still doesn’t have a shirt number and is not likely to be registered for the league.
Samper had already gone onto the Camp Nou pitch without a shirt number even before the Paulinho signing, but the transfer seems to confirm the youngster will be leaving.
Samper has a contract until 2019 and spent last season on loan at Granada. It remains to be seen if Can Barça still rates him as a future Barcelona player, despite Samper having come up as a much-touted prospect in the academy.
