An American player is inching closer to a significant milestone.
According to Diario SPORT, Konrad de la Fuente is one of five Barcelona B players who will spend the entire preseason training with the first team. Manager Ronald Koeman reportedly “wants to see [him] in action.” Following the completion of fitness testing, the Spanish super club returns to individual training this upcoming week.
Barcelona is attempting to rebound from a disappointing season that included a second place finish in La Liga and the failure to reach any cup finals.
