Debut Brilliance for Hamza Abdel Karim
Egyptian talent Hamza Abdel Karim made his mark in his first appearance for Barcelona's Under-19s, scoring in the Sunday clash with Huesca as part of the Spanish youth league.
He started for the Catalan club for the first time since joining during the winter window from Al Ahly, and his goal came in the 69th minute as a left‑wing cross headed home after a goalkeeper's misplaced departure.
He was substituted in the 72nd minute after delivering a lively contribution, and his early showings are quickly building a case for a regular place in the youth setup.
The Egyptian teenager’s breakthrough adds a bright note for Barça’s academy as they look to the future, with Hamza signaling notable attacking potential.
Also noted was talk that Barça’s coaches see him as a potential asset for the first team.
