Barca linked with Leeds' Elliot Kebbie.

Multiple British media outlets are reporting that Barça are on the verge of securing the services of 16 year old Elliot Kebbie. A statement on Leeds’ club website indicate that they would be compensated for the loss if the player continues on in Spain, but a club spokesperson said there are no hard feelings. ”This is an amicable parting of the ways and there is no issue with Barcelona over this,” he said. Barça are said to have become interested in the player following a recent work out at La Masia.

While not especially well known, Kebbie has also been linked with Manchester United of late, and is turning down a scholarship offer from Leeds to continue on at Elland Road. Kebbie has shown athleticism away from the pitch as well, winning a national sprint title in England with a time just over 11 seconds in the 100 metres. He received a call up to England’s U-16 squad at only 14 years of age.

Kebbie has shown comfort both in the midfield and right back.

He seems quick. Has anyone ever seen him play here at all? Well say what you will about our youth, this kid must have something special for Barca to be linked with a player in a 2nd division side. And at that age, it seems interesting for Barca to be rumored. I'd say go for it, he can't be too pricy.
