Brazilian media: Barcelona and Ajax are interested in 17-year-old Brazilian winger Ryan Roberto

17-year-old Ryan Roberto contributed 20 goals and 14 assists in 33 games of the Flamenco U17 in 2025. According to the Pakistani media Global Sports, Barcelona and Ajax have asked Ryan Roberto. Given his position characteristics, it is in line with the goals that Barcelona management is looking for in the transfer market, and the right-foot left winger with excellent skills, fast speed and goal-scoring ability.

Ryan Roberto's ability is unquestionable. As a Brazilian U17 international, despite his youth, he has trained with the Brazilian U20 national team. Of course, it wouldn't be easy for him to leave Flamenco because first-team coach Felipe Louis recognized his conditions, and he coached Ryan Roberto during his youth training. Although the coach has not given him a first-team debut, the outside world speculates that it won't be too long.

As is common with young Brazilian talents, the contracts of players are complicated. Ryan Roberto joined Flamenco via Athletic Barana, and they both retained 50% ownership of the player. Flamenco has an 1.5 million euro purchase option that can get another 20% ownership, but has not been exercised. At the same time, Athletic Barana had wanted to buy 20% ownership of Flamenco to regain most ownership of Ryan Roberto, but Flamenco did not accept it.
