Barcelona’s Second Summer Signing Mirrors Prodigy Lamine Yamal

Barcelona's second signing of the summer transfer window, Swedish wonderkid Roony Bardghji from FC Copenhagen has drawn instant parallels to teenage sensation Lamine Yamal.

The 19-year-old right winger joins the Catalan giants for a modest fee of €2 million, thanks to his expiring contract in December.

Much like Lamine Yamal, Bardghji is a highly rated right-sided winger known for his flair, technical ability, and attacking instincts.

Though the transfer was initially announced through Barcelona B’s official channels, sources within the club confirm Bardghji is expected to train with the senior squad under Hansi Flick as early as Monday 14.

Born in Kuwait to Syrian parents and holding a Swedish passport, Bardghji has already represented Sweden at youth international levels.

His multicultural background and impressive skill set have made him one of Europe’s most closely watched teenage talents.

Barcelona moved swiftly to fend off competition from Portuguese side Porto, who had shown strong interest in acquiring Bardghji’s services.

The low cost of the transfer represents a smart piece of business by the Spanish giants, who continue to reinforce their squad while navigating financial limitations.

Bardghji becomes Barcelona’s second signing since reclaiming the La Liga title, following the earlier arrival of goalkeeper Joan Garcia from Espanyol.

His addition highlights Barca’s ongoing commitment to securing young, high-potential talents who can both contribute now and grow within the club’s philosophy.

Though not yet confirmed for regular matchday inclusion, Bardghji’s immediate integration into first-team training suggests Flick sees him as part of the senior setup, not merely a prospect for the future.

With Lamine Yamal already establishing himself as a key figure, Bardghji’s arrival sets up an exciting battle and potential partnership on the flanks for the years to come.
