Young winger Carles Perez made his La Liga debut for Barcelona in the match against Eibar. He came on a late substitute for Malcom.

"I'm so happy to complete the dream I, like so many children, had with Barça: making my debut with the first team. It's been an unforgettable experience," said the 21-year-old.

"When I saw I wasn't going with the B side to Castellon, I thought maybe I'd have a chance. And, if it came, that I'd take full advantage of that."

"And when I came out onto the pitch the coach told me to play with confidence, not to hide or play with fear, and to play as I did with the B side. I'm happy to have made my debut."

Perez has a strong friendship with Carles Aleña. "I've spent a lot of years with him and he made a joke because I came on, but he also gave me good advice."
