Agreement reached between FC Barcelona and RCD Mallorca for the transfer of defender Javi Castro to Barça Atlètic. Born in 2007, the 19-year-old signs a contract running through to 30 June 2028 and is set to be part of the development side for the next two years.

Castro joins Barça after spending last season on loan at CF Damm playing in the División de Honor Juvenil. He developed throughout the season, establishing himself as a solid defender, with good positioning and showing an ability to complete at the highest level.

His addition strengthens the Barça Atlètic defensive line with a young promising player who will make Juliano Belletti's side more competitive.
