Barcelona teenagers Alejandro Balde and Gavi have made it onto the long list for the 2023 Golden Boy award after playing starring roles for Xavi’s side.
Gavi claimed the award last year, following in the footsteps of Pedri, and another winner from the club would make it the third year in a row a Barca player has claimed the prize.
This year’s ranking includes statistical analysis by Football BenchMark which means each player has been given a rating.
The rating is based on a player’s performance, minutes, value to the team, and performances in Europe and with the national team.
