I consider Ronald the 'Papa of Ilaix.' You have to be grateful to someone who gives you the chance of a lifetime, as he's done with my son. Not all managers make these gestures. If it wasn't for Koeman, some of these youngsters wouldn't be in the first team.
When it comes to renewing, having a coach that backs the kids is key.
With this dynamic, thanks to Koeman, I am 100 percent thinking of Bar?a. Why leave? At that age, taking the risk of going to another team when you have a coach that takes a chance on a kid from La Masia in a tough game like the Sevilla one... You have to appreciate that. Hardly anyone does it.

Laporta as president helps to think that Ilaix could stay for many years?
It helps, that's clear. I hope Ilaix never leaves and can be an example for the next generation at La Masia. I want kids who have doubts about staying to see Ilaix and choose to stay. It happened with Messi, Iniesta, Busquets, Xavi, etc.I hope he can always stay at Bar?a.
Here is what Ilaix' father said in an interview in March.

Some say that siting on the bench of Juvenil A team is fantastic for young players development. I sincerely hope that during the next 12 months this will be his playing position.
With Busi getting old we only have 2 good midfielders (De Jong and Pedri). This idiot would have an opportunity of a lifetime to develop and earn unbelievable amount of money in the future. What a short-sighted moron.
Are there any offers for him?
Moriba's dad in the next couple of weeks: "I am really grateful to Chelsea and Tuchel. Ilax was always a big fan of this club. This is a dream come true!"
I assume he wanted to leave for free next year though. It's a completely different ball game for Chelsea to actually pay a transfer fee (and offer good wages). Right now I guess Ilaix is on course to lose a year of development.
