Bobby Adekanye,16, set to swap Barcelona for Premier League side Liverpool
Bobby Adekanye, one of the young players affected by the sanction imposed on Barcelona by FIFA, has grown tired of waiting and will leave the club's academy.
The 16-year-old Dutch-Nigerian winger was one of the players who FIFA deemed Barça signed outside the rules, so he has been on loan with PSV Eindhoven in Holland, waiting for a solution to FIFA's sanction.
However, with no solution in sights, Bobby Adekanye, who participated with Alejandro Viedma in the opening of the new Masia in Sant Joan Despi, has decided to look for a home somewhere else.
According to Catalunya Radio, that new home will be with Premier League side Liverpool. Barça will not ask for any compensation either, as they want to thank the teenager for the years he has given the club during this difficult period.
Born in Nigeria, Bobby moved to Holland when he was four to live in Amsterdam with his family. He arrived in Barcelona in 2011 after spending time with Ajax Amsterdam. Now 16, he would have been able to begin playing again for Barça in January, but it appears he has decided not to wait until then.
