Barça to field La Masia graduate

Alarcón to replace suspended Busquets

Former Barcelona youth team captain, Marc Casadó Alarcón, is set to make his debut for the senior team against Girona FC. Alarcón is expected to replace Sergio Busquets, who is suspended for the match. Alarcón has progressed through the ranks at Barcelona, having joined the club at the age of six. The midfielder has represented Spain at youth international level and is considered one of the most promising talents in the country. The 19-year-old has been in impressive form for Barcelona B this season, scoring three goals in 10 appearances. He has also captained the team on several occasions. Alarcón's inclusion in the squad is a sign of Barcelona's faith in their young players. The club has a long history of promoting youth players to the first team, and Alarcón is the latest in a long line of players to make the step up. The match against Girona FC will be a tough test for Alarcón, but he will be hoping to impress and show that he is ready to play at the highest level. The match will be played at the Estadi Montilivi in Girona on Saturday, January 28th. Kick-off is at 20:00 CET.
