FC Barcelona has said goodbye to one of its most promising young talents, Hugo Alba, who has completed his transfer to Serbian club OFK Belgrade. The highly-regarded forward became a free agent on June 30th following the expiration of his contract with Barça and has now signed a deal with OFK Belgrade that will keep him at the club until 2028. This move is certainly expected to provide him with significantly more opportunities for playtime on the pitch.
The 19-year-old had already begun training with the Serbian club over the past three weeks during their pre-season preparations, even making his unofficial debut last Monday as a starter in a friendly match against Dinamo Moscow. This immediate integration into his new environment and the evident trust placed in him by the Balkan club are clear indicators of his potential impact. Alba is characterized as a modern center-forward, renowned for his ability to be a central attacking threat and his natural instinct for scoring goals. His strong technical skills and physical presence make him a complete striker, perfectly suited to be a key player in the penalty area.
