Barcelona’s scouting department is always active in identifying emerging talent, not only for the first team but also for the club’s youth structure.
Their latest focus appears to be on a young Brazilian prospect, Breno Bidon, as reported by SPORT. The 19-year-old midfielder, who plays for Corinthians, is considered one of the most promising options on the Brazilian market at the moment.
Barcelona scouts have followed Breno closely, particularly after witnessing his performance at the prestigious Copinha tournament earlier this year.
In the final, which took place in January 2024, Corinthians beat Cruzeiro, with Breno playing an important role. This live assessment by Barça’s scouts seems to have reinforced their interest in the player.
Who is Breno Bidón?
Breno Bidon has earned a solid reputation for his technical ability and excellent vision on the field. In Brazil, he usually plays as a ’10’, showing his creativity and style in attack.
However, he is also seen as someone who could adapt well to an inside left role in Barcelona’s system.
Despite his clear potential, it is understood that he needs to work on his physical attributes to reach his full potential.
Barça’s plan
If Barcelona decide to move forward, the plan would likely involve initially signing Breno for Barça Atletic, with the possibility of him moving into the first team.
His market value is currently estimated at €8 million, but Barcelona could potentially negotiate a lower fee including performance-related variables.
Breno is now of legal age to play in Europe, making the move feasible, although his contract with Corinthians runs until 2028. Fortunately, Deco’s strong relationship with the Brazilian club could simplify negotiations.
As for his performance in 2024, Breno has logged an impressive 3,348 minutes in 53 games, contributing two goals and four assists.
These numbers underline his durability and consistent presence on the field, key attributes that Barcelona values.
