The Palace Fan 3,400 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Former Arsenal midfielder Marcus McGuane could become the first English player to feature for Barcelona's first team since Gary Lineker on Wednesday. The 19-year-old has been included in Ernesto Valverde's 18-man squad for the Catalan Super Cup final against Espanyol. McGuane, who has appeared four times for Barcelona B, left Arsenal for Catalonia in January, signing a contract that could be extended to five years.

The game is live on the youtube video above It was a nostalgic moment for me after the last time I saw a British player in Lineker wear the blaugrana. This is wonderful news for British football as far as I'm concerned with him ending on the winning side. Shame about Denis Suárez' injury though which seems he'll be out for some time.

It would be good to see an English player make it at Barcelona, especially after spending time in the B team set-up. Denis will unfortunately leave at the end of the summer as it just hasn't worked out for him, which is a shame, as a confident on form Denis Suarez who is getting sufficient minutes, could have been a decent substitute for Iniesta during his injury for the next 3-4 weeks.

The Palace Fan 3,400 Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 A 19 year old from Greenwich making his Barcelona debut. I never thought I'd live to see the day Great for England too. Hopefully more kids will see the footballing education him, Sancho, Egbo and Willock are getting and take a similar leap overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
