From the source
According to Mundo Deportivo, the Barcelona first-team coaching staff is keeping a close eye on the development of teenage summer signing Jesse Bisiwu. The 18-year-old winger is still waiting for his first competitive appearance for the senior setup, and as such, the coaches are monitoring his adaptation at the club.
Barcelona signed Bisiwu from Club Brugge in the summer in a deal worth €8.5 million plus add-ons. The teenage attacker was a personal bet by sporting director Deco and head of scouting Joao Amaral.
The La Liga champions handed him a long-term contract until 2031 and included him in the first-team plans for pre-season, with the starlet even impressing in the friendly matches.
