Barcelona played their first official pre-season friendly against Birmingham City, and Hansi Flick named a very youthful team from the outset.
The German manager played Xavi Espart at right-back ahead of Hector Fort, and the 19-year-old did not put a foot wrong during his time on the pitch.
According to Mundo Deportivo, he took another important step towards establishing himself in Hansi Flick's plans with an ******* ured performance at right-back during Barcelona's 2-2 draw.
The 19-year-old started the match and completed 62 minutes before being replaced by Brian Farinas.
His selection from the opening whistle was already a strong show of trust from Flick, and Espart responded with a display full of composure and tactical intelligence.
