The agent was at the club's training ground on Sunday

He was with Simons' father and later left in the same car

While Xavi Simons -- one of the most promising players at Barcelona's La Masia at the moment -- was playing against Sant Gabriel, his father was sat with well known agent Mino Raiola. 

The agent of players such as Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic landed in Barcelona on Sunday with a clear idea: to sign the star of Barça's academy, aged just 14. 

Until now, Simons has been represented by his father, but things could change in the coming days. In fact, the image of Sunday came after the game, when Raiola left in the same vehicle as the youngster's dad. 

This was happening while Barça's U15 team were playing a friendly at the Ciutat Esportiva. Remember that Simons' father, until recently, was working with Ajax's academy -- a role he left to focus on his son's future. 

It remains to be seen how the presence of Raiola, one of football's most powerful agents, will go down with Barça.
