Barcelona Coach Enzo Flic Impressed by Israeli Midfielder Oriyan Goren
Barcelona is preparing for the upcoming season, which officially begins later this month with league matches, while currently engaged in pre-season friendlies. According to the Spanish sports outlet Mundo Deportivo, 17-year-old Israeli midfielder Oriyan Goren has made a strong impression on Barcelona's head coach Enzo Flic during training sessions and recent friendly matches. Flic reportedly conveyed a clear message to the coaching staff expressing his high regard for Goren, alongside two other players, Chavi Espert and Ibrahima Tonkara, suggesting they may receive further opportunities with the senior team.
Barcelona's pre-season tour continues with upcoming matches in Italy against Udinese and Nottingham Forest, though it remains uncertain which halves Goren will play. Upon returning to Spain next week, the team will be joined by the recently crowned World Cup champions, who have been resting following the tournament. These top players are expected to participate in the Joan Gamper Trophy, marking a significant step in the club's preparations for the new season. Goren's promising performances could potentially earn him a spot in the final squad under coach Ben Goldfrain.
