Oriol Busquets, winter signing

Catalan midfielder Oriol Busquets will strengthen the tricolour squad for the second half of the season. Busquets, who has been released from Portuguese Arouca, his last team, arrives in the Principality as a free agent and signs for the rest of the season with an option of another year.

Oriol Busquets, tricolour!

Oriol Busquets (Sant Feliu de Guíxols, 20/01/1999) is a 26-year-old positional midfielder – he turned 26 just this week – trained in Barça's youth system but with experience also abroad. Busquets spent 14 seasons in the lower categories of the Blaugrana club until he made his debut with the first team in a Cup match against Murcia in November 2017. That season, at the age of 18, he was an important player with the reserve team in the second division, as well as the following season in the Primera RFEF.

He also played for a year at Dutch club Twente, on loan, and after leaving Barça he spent time in the French league, with Clermont, and in Portugal, where he spent the last two and a half seasons with Arouca, with whom he played in European competitions last year.

The midfielder will arrive in Andorra at the beginning of next week and will join the team's training.

Welcome to the Principality, Uri! Your successes will be ours!
