The 63 signings Barcelona made for La Masia this summer
Barça made eight signings from rivals Espanyol during the transfer window
There was a lot of movement in the offices at Barcelona this summer, beyond the business the club did in the transfer window to improve the first team.
For a number of years, La Masia's been divided into two. On one side, there's Juvenil A and Juvenil B, overseen by Guillermo Amor and José Mari Bakero. On the other, there's Cadete A all the way down to Prebenjamín, which Jordi Roura and Aureli Altimira are in charge of.
In total, there have been 63 signings for the club's various youth teams this summer: 24 for 11-a-side teams and 39 for the younger 7-a-side teams.
Juvenil A, the U19 team who will be trying to win the UEFA Youth League, are the most important side at La Masia. They haven't made any star signings this summer, bringing in just two players from other clubs in Catalonia.
Sergi Serrano (Damm), the younger brother of Roger, who plays futbol sala for Barça, and Carlos Polo 'Peque' (Badalona= are the only two arrivals.
As for Juvenil B, they have signd six players, including two from Espanyol (Brian Peña y Raúl Moro) and one who had been let go by Real Madrid (Diego Lopez).
