Nicknamed the "Barca Robben" because of his quality left foot, the player from the La Masia academy is getting, at 21, his first minutes for the Barcelona first team if you exclude his debut against Eibar. That game was the last game of the season and a completely meaningless one.
Carles Perez played well against Chelsea without being able to score, but this time he got a double against Vissel Kobe. First after a great one-two with Malcom and the second with a shot across the goal which went in off the far post.
He joined Barca in 2012. At that time, the club put him in the youth teams, in the Cadete B to be precise. He kept progressing at a rapid rate and went through all the age categories up untl he reached the B team.
The young left footed winger has gradually been gaining the confidence of Ernesto Valverde. With Messi, Suarez and co. missing, the coach is resorting to the academy, where the footballer is shining. Perez was Barcelona's top scorer in Japan.
