Story updated

The story in brief

29-second read

One of the pleasant surprises of the season for FC Barcelona’s reserve team, Barça Atletic, has been Mirza Catovic. The midfielder, who is on loan from Stuttgart, has impressed with his performances in the engine room of Juliano Belletti’s side.

A towering presence, Catovic bears a strong physical and stylistic resemblance to first-team star Marc Bernal. He has established himself as a dominant presence in midfield whenever he has played for the reserves.

Catovic made his first start against UD Logrones Promesas, missed the following match through suspension and then sat out the next two fixtures after receiving a call-up to the Germany U20 national team.
