Saudi Arabia going after two more youth talents from Barcelona after UNAI Hernández

FC Barcelona appear to lose one of their extremely talented academy prospects, Unai Hernandez, to Saudi Arabia this month.

Indeed, the 20-year-old, who happens to be the captain of Barça Atlético, is heading to Al-Itihad in Saudi, with a €5 million transfer set to be finalized in the coming days.

However, not stopping at that, the Middle Eastern country has set its sights on two more The Masia garments.

Propassions of Saudi Arabia and Arnau

In fact, according to the sport, Saudi Arabia is also looking to sign Barcelona youngsters Pau Prim and Arnau Pradas, whose contracts expire in 2025 like Unai Hernández.

According to the report, Pau Prim is already in talks to join Saudi football when his contract expires at the end of the season.

One of the clubs showing interest in the 18-year-old midfielder is al-Qadsiah, managed by Michel González, who is interested in investing in young talents.

Barça Atlético manager Albert Sánchez has been left out of Barça’s matchday squad due to his reluctance to extend a contract that runs out on June 30.

Unless there is a change of heart, Prim is ready to leave Barcelona in the coming months, and the offer from Saudi Arabia is very attractive. Clubs in Belgium are also interested, with the youngster expected to make a final decision soon.

Another player on Saudi Arabia’s radar is Arnau Pradas. His contract also expires in 2025, and Al-Qadsiah has expressed interest in the talented winger.

Pradas, 18, scored three and assisted one goal in the UEFA Youth League this season and has made two appearances for Atlético del Barça this season.

Initially, his intention was to renew with the club, but the lack of talks from Barcelona has led him to consider other offers that have been presented to him.

The Prim situation looks irredeemable at the moment with the midfielder likely to leave once his contract expires. It remains to be seen if Pradas also follows the same path.
