Javier Espinosa plays for Barca's Juvenil A.
Sport just had an article on young Javier claiming that he's the next Iniesta (probably because he's "Manchego" too).

Which position does he play?

attacking midfielder or a false winger as far as I am concerned

He's 2 days older than me. Cool. I think I could still catch his skills.

When he had his debut for Barca B he was playing in defensive midfield role. Hardworking midfielder at first sight..smth like Mascherano...

Thanx for the info Robert. I imagined Espinosa was an attacking midfielder.

I dont know,I only saw him with Spain U-17 team where he played as attacking midfield and was partnered with Sergi Roberto in midfield,I guess he can play as a winger and as a flase number nine aswell,not sure about him playing as a defensive midfielder

Banged two goals in against Poblense and has been a real driving force for Juvenil A so far this season.

 

[Barcaman]

Good news. He's turning 19 this year and will surely be promoted to B team?

This is just incredible, so many homegrown players in the first team, so many talents coming on the big stage from youth... This revamped youth system of Barcelona is giving some amazing results. If they continue to work like that, soon they will surpass Ajax.
