As reported by ESPN and confirmed by Globoesporte, Barça have signed the unknown Brazilian striker Gustavo Maia, just 19 years old. The Barça club, which in principle will incorporate it for its subsidiary, pays 4.5 million euros for the footballer, although he had already committed a million euros at the beginning of the year (which later came out of a fund and will pay now) to ensure that purchase option. Sao Paulo maintains 30% of the player's economic rights.
In principle, it is to imagine that Guatavo Maia arrives to reinforce the Barça subsidiary, who still does not know if he will play in the Second Division. That, if he does not remain on loan in Sao Paulo, a club he came to at the age of 14 from Brasilia. Since then, he has stood out in the lower categories of Sao Paulo, but he is a perfect unknown on the international scene.
