Koeman to give Alena, Mingueza more chances at Barcelona?

Barcelona’s Champions League win over Dynamo Kiev could prove to be something of a turning point this season with manager Ronald Koeman reportedly having been impressed by the performances of his young players.

The Barcelona boss, who advised his youngsters at the start of the season to go out on loan, may just have had a change of heart after seeing his much-changed team produce a performance full of energy and goals.

Koeman handed Oscar Mingueza a debut against Dynamo Kiev and was impressed with the 21-year-old defender and told him so after the game, according to Sport.
