FC Barcelona continues to solidify its future with strategic contract extensions, recently announcing the renewal of two promising young talents, Álvaro Pérez ‘Trilli’ and Jan Virgili.
The club has reached an agreement with Trilli, extending his contract until June 30, 2026. Trilli, born on May 19, 2003, in Ortigueira, A Coruña, joined FC Barcelona in the summer of 2023 after transferring from Deportivo de La Coruña. In his brief time with the development side, he has showcased his quality by participating in 21 matches. Despite facing some injuries, Trilli remains a valuable player who exhibits speed and physical prowess as a right back.
“Having Trilli on board for another year strengthens our squad,” said FC Barcelona's management, emphasizing the player's potential to contribute significantly in the coming seasons.
Jan Virgili is another young prospect whose recent contract extension is a significant boost for the club. Born on July 26, 2006, in Vilassar de Mar, Virgili joined FC Barcelona in July 2024, moving from Nàstic de Tarragona. This season with the FC Barcelona U19A side led by coach Juliano Belletti, he has proved his worth, appearing in 30 matches across various competitions, scoring six goals—three in the league and three in the UEFA Youth League.
His successful performance not only secured his spot in the U19A team but also led to his debut with Barça Atlètic, where he played six games. The new contract will keep him with the club for two more seasons, extending his stay until June 30, 2027, which is expected to bolster Barça Atlètic's attacking capabilities.
“This renewal reflects our confidence in Jan’s abilities as a quick and influential player who can thrive on both wings,” remarked a club spokesperson.
Trilli and Virgili represent a bright future for FC Barcelona as they navigate the competitive landscape of youth and senior football. Both players exemplify the club’s commitment to developing homegrown talent while maintaining a competitive edge in various leagues.
Trilli's physical attributes and Virgili’s scoring ability illustrate the talent reservoir available to the club as it looks to build a formidable squad for years to come. As Injuries continue to thwart potential on-field contributions, the club's management is optimistic about having these two distinctly talented players available and healthy for the remainder of the season.
Looking forward, FC Barcelona aims to leverage the skills of Trilli and Virgili, enhancing their development in tandem with the club's overarching goals of excellence and success on both domestic and European fronts.
In conclusion, the strategic contract extensions of these two players reflect FC Barcelona’s dedication to investing in youthful talent, reinforcing their workforce as they aim for future victories.
