Barcelona Tracking 16-Year-Old Mexico U-20 Standout Gilberto Mora

The Xolos midfielder has propelled Mexico into a Round of 16 meeting with host Chile at the U-20 World Cup.

Overview

  • Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, as cited by RÉCORD, reports that Barcelona scouts are closely monitoring the Tijuana prospect.
  • Additional reports indicate Manchester City, Real Madrid and Ajax have sent observers to evaluate his performances.
  • Mora played a decisive role in the victory over Morocco, with Mexico finishing second in Group C to reach the knockout phase.
  • Mexico will face Chile in Valparaíso in the Round of 16, where Mora has emerged as a key starter for the youth side.
  • Any international transfer remains constrained by FIFA rules on minors, so his immediate development continues with Xolos.
