Barcelona follows Eliesse Ben Seghir

And, in recent days, the name of Eliesse Ben Seghir, a young winger who is causing a sensation at AS Monaco, has emerged.
According to a recent report by GOAL (h/t Sports World), Barcelona are closely monitoring Ben Seghir, who is making a positive impression in France.
Ben Seghir, valued at €30 million by Transfermarkt, has scored seven goals and provided four assists in 23 games this season.
The Moroccan left back has also had the experience of playing against Barcelona, making his debut in the Champions League in the opening match of the current season.
The 19-year-old has already admitted to idolizing two former Barcelona superstars and icons: Lionel Messi and Neymar.
“Neymar is my role model. “I love his freedom and his style of play.” said the young man in an interview with ‘Onze Mondial’.
“All the young players admire him. And, of course, there is Messi, whose ability to beat an entire team is incredible.”
Ben Seghir, who has three goals in eight games for the Moroccan national team, has a contract with AS Monaco until the summer of 2027.
