Ghanaian full-back, David Oduro, has described Barcelona as his dream club since childhood after signing for the Catalan club's second team.
Last month, the defender became the first player to be signed directly from Ghana to the Spanish side.
The 18-year-old penned a three-year deal with the Blaugrana, transferring from Ghana Premier League side Accra Lions.
Prior to moving to Spain, the left-back had trials with Chelsea and Bayer Leverkusen in an attempt to secure a transfer.
Speaking after his unveiling earlier this week, Oduro expressed his pleasure at joining Barcelona.
“I feel very, very great to be here. Barcelona has always been my dream club since childhood and now that I'm here, I'm going to work hard to be able to play for the first team.”
Oduro will begin his journey with Barcelona Athletic where he will be joined by countryman Abdul Aziz Issah who moves on loan from Dreams FC.
