Real Madrid does not stop: Florentino is going for the new South American gem 4c1247

Real Madrid has once again turned its focus to South America, this time honing in on Germán Barbas, a young prodigy at just 16 years old who is already being compared to "Federico Valverde."

Barbas, who plays in the youth ranks of CA Peñarol, has sparked interest from the Merengue side due to his versatility and talent in midfield, qualities reminiscent of Valverde himself, who also came through the same Uruguayan club.

Barbas has caught the continent's attention for his remarkable ability to perform in multiple midfield positions, displaying an uncommon maturity for his age. His talent has not gone unnoticed, and although Real Madrid has not yet made an official move, the Spanish press is already speculating about the Whites' possible interest in adding another young South American talent to their ranks. In a continent that has already borne great fruits for the club, such as Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, Barbas could be next in line.

The young Uruguayan has openly discussed the comparisons with Valverde, acknowledging the influence he has had on his development as a footballer. Although he recognizes the similarities, Barbas is determined to forge his own path, with the dream of one day playing in Europe at the highest level.

For now, Real Madrid is closely monitoring his progress, aware that the South American market continues to be a breeding ground for great talents. The club's scouts tracking Barbas could be the prelude to a future offer, but in the meantime, the young talent continues to shine at CA Peñarol, with the world's eyes on him.
