Barcelona have announced that youngster Kays Ruiz-Atil has been released by the club just one-year after he rejoined the Catalonians. The 19-year-old, once dubbed the ‘new Messi', has been previously linked with Arsenal, with his release potentially handing the club an opportunity to revive their interest.
It comes ahead of a huge summer for Mikel Arteta in shaping his side for next season. A number of positions are said to be a priority, such as up front and in the midfield, with a lack of depth still an issue at the club.
Discussing potential upcoming transfer plans, the Spaniard said: "What we want to do is improve the team and the squad. There’s not a player that can’t improve. We want to retain our best players for sure and add quality and depth.
