Dubbed as the next Paul Pogba, Ilaix Moriba has everything going for him right now. He had an amazing season in the B team last year which propelled him into the first team. Although he had to wait a lot before he made his debut for the first team, it was worth the wait as fans really enjoyed the youngster’s flair and passion. The player played for both the B team and the main team last season which should show just how important he is for Barcelona not only for the club, but for the whole organization.

Morbia is currently just 18 years of age and he could end up being the next Pedri, next season. He played 18 games in all competitions for the Catalans and it is expected that he will play more next season. The highlight of his last season has to be his debut goal which he scored off of a Lionel Messi assist. The player is showing every sign of reaching great heights; however, he will need to develop a bit more and tone down the unnecessary flair that he tends to showcase on the pitch.

Next season will be a big one for him as Koeman may want to use him more often than he did in the 2020/21 season. Moriba should definitely be on your watch list as this 18-year-old could take the club by a storm next season.
