Barcelona Set to Sign New Contract with Ebrima Tunkara

Barcelona are preparing to finalise a new contract with highly rated youth talent Ebrima Tunkara, with an agreement expected to be completed next week, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.

The 15-year-old midfielder is widely viewed as one of the brightest prospects at La Masia, Barcelona’s famed academy, and has already begun to attract attention for his rapid development. Tunkara made his debut for Barça B at just 15 years old this week, a rare achievement for a player of his age.

Tunkara has been training with Barça Atlètic under coach Juliano Belletti as the club prepares for Copa Catalunya competition, signalling increased trust in his potential.

While Barcelona have reached an agreement in principle to extend his stay, no official contract has yet been signed. Both the club and player remain optimistic about the future, with internal reports describing the ongoing discussions as positive and constructive.

At just 15, Tunkara is already a regular contributor for Barcelona’s Juvenil A side, competing above his age group, a sign of how highly the club rates him.

If the contract is finalised as expected, it will secure Tunkara’s future at Barcelona and protect one of Europe’s most promising young midfielders, strengthening the club’s commitment to promoting youth talent from La Masia.
