FC Barcelona is set to strengthen their youth academy with the acquisition of highly-rated Ghanaian left-back David Oduro from Accra Lions. The Catalan giants have reportedly reached an agreement to sign the 18-year-old, who has been making waves in Ghanaian football.
Born in 2006, Oduro impressed during a trial with Barcelona earlier this year, prompting the club to pursue his signature. Despite interest from several other European clubs, Barcelona successfully secured the young defender, underscoring their commitment to nurturing top talent.
Oduro’s rise has been meteoric; he became a regular starter for Accra Lions at just 17, amassing over 50 senior appearances. His solid defensive skills, combined with his offensive contributions—one goal and six assists—have drawn comparisons to Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies, known for his pace and versatility on the field.
