WATCH: Barca’s next star? Tunkara scores great goal for Spain’s Under-16s
Another exciting talent
Barcelona teenager Ebrima Tunkara has been getting fans excited by scoring a superb goal on international duty with Spain’s Under-16 side.
The 15-year-old struck the opening goal on Thursday against Turkey with a really wonderful effort just 25 minutes into his debut.
Tunkara was left one-on-one with the goalkeeper and hit the post with his initial shot but then pounced on the rebound and came up with an eye-catching spin and flick to finally put the ball in the back of the net.

Tunkara has already been making waves at La Masia where former academy director Albert Puig has talked him up in a recent interview with Sport.
“Lamine made you win the games on his own because he made it up himself. He was touched by the wand of geniuses,” he said.
“Ebrima is different, but having him on the pitch makes things a lot easier for others. He gave you a guarantee that he improved everything and always showed up in the important games.
“As a coach, with Ebrima you were calm. I’ll tell you a fact: with him, in 30 league games in benjamines and 30 with infantiles we didn’t lose a single game”.
One to watch for sure at Barcelona.
