However, they keep a percentage of any future sales. Navarro had been on the outskirts of the Barca Atletic team, but there are many young defenders ahead of him before he can think about the first team, with Alejandro Balde considered the future of the position. Gerard Martin and Alex Valle are a few years older, but one of them is likely to support Balde this season.

Navarro featured in the UEFA Youth League for Barcelona last season, but was considered a replacement by Barca Atletic coach Albert Sanchez in the summer.
