Barcelona will part ways with goalkeeper Aron Yaakobishvili, according to the latest arrival from the Catalan capital. Teenage product La Masia has not found a new deal with the club.
Yaakobishvili, who joined the club at the age of 15, was regarded as one of the more talented goalkeeping options and started this season as number one under 19 in the UEFA Youth League. However, Yaakobishvili was benched by the club as contract talks stalled, and with his deal set to expire next summer, Relevo say he will leave the club. That will take place either in January or in the summer, but will probably mean a move abroad. Yaakobishvili stood out for his agility and ability to play from the back.
It means the Blaugrana will get ahead of highly rated USMNT goalkeeper Diego Kochen and Ander Astralaga, who will be their third choice for the senior side, and their first choice for Barca Atletic.
