Despite the disappointment of Turkish midfielder Arda Güler's move to Real Madrid, Barcelona are not giving up on bringing in young talent. The latest to be fixated upon is Turkish-German winger Kebir Ali Canpolat, who plays for Eintracht Frankfurt's youth team.

The 16-year-old Canpolat is on the radar of Europe's top clubs, according to Sky. Barça will have to pull out all the stops if they are to come out on top this time around. Competition will be fierce, with Inter Milan, Juventus, Ajax, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal also eyeing the winger.

Canpolat is one of Eintracht Frankfurt's best youth players. Last season he was one of the most outstanding players in the team that finished fourth in one of the three divisions of the U17 Bundesliga, with twelve goals and eight assists.

The young winger, who has opted to play for the Turkish U17s, is determined to leave Eintracht Frankfurt as he feels he has little chance of making the first team soon.

Born in the German town of Euskirchen, he joined Eintracht's youth ranks in 2017.
