Moha El Ouriachi was one of the most promising players on Barcelona’s B side but due to a lack of playing time during a woeful season for the Segunda squad, he turned down an offer of a new Barcelona contract, signing instead for Stoke City this summer for an undisclosed amount; he is expected to stay with Barca until 2019. He will be back with fellow ex-Barça players Bojan and Marc Muniesa.

Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes said: ‘He’s excited about joining a Premier League club, especially one that already has two former Barcelona players in their squad. Moha has seen the progress made by Bojan and Marc and wants to try and do likewise.’

 

The 19-year-old winger played for Spain at youth Level but has also been selected by Morocco for their under-23 team.
