Barcelona scouts track 15-year-old Norwegian striker Gabriel Rajkovic
Summary

Barcelona has intensified its interest in 15-year-old Norwegian striker Gabriel Rajkovic, sending scouts to assess him during a recent match. Rajkovic has made headlines by becoming the youngest goalscorer in Eliteserien history with Valerenga, scoring his first professional goal at just 15 years and five months. His rapid rise has drawn attention from several European clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea, although they face restrictions under Brexit regulations. Barcelona could potentially pursue Rajkovic once he turns 16 due to his EU citizenship. The club aims to expand its recruitment beyond traditional methods, seeking young talents like Rajkovic as part of a long-term strategy.
