Como are reportedly exploring another exciting opportunity in the transfer market, with Barcelona youngster Hamza Abdelkarim emerging as a potential target.
The Italian side have been impressed by the 18-year-old Egyptian forward’s natural talent and believe they could provide the ideal environment for him to develop and gain valuable first-team experience.
Hamza has reportedly been receiving very limited playing time at Barcelona, despite Hansi Flick asking him to remain patient and continue working hard.
However, Como could now offer him a pathway to regular football.
💰 THE NICO PAZ AND JACOBO RAMÓN FORMULA!
Como are looking to repeat the strategy they previously used with Real Madrid, involving Nico Paz and Jacobo Ramón.
Their proposed approach would reportedly involve signing Hamza for a relatively low fee while allowing Barcelona to retain control over his future through a reduced-fee buy-back option.
This would give Como the opportunity to develop another promising youngster, while Barcelona could potentially bring him back if he fulfils his enormous potential.
Nothing is advanced at this stage, but the interest is there.
🔵🔴 Barcelona must carefully consider what is best for Hamza’s development. Keeping him without sufficient playing time could slow his progress, while a move to Como might provide the experience he needs.
Could Como become the perfect stepping stone for Hamza Abdelkarim, just like they did with Nico Paz? 👀🇪🇬
