The 16-year-old signed from Barcelona’s youth squad after previously being a part of West Bromwich Albion’s youth system (per Transfermarkt). Barry only made three appearances for the Barcelona youth team this season, with those appearances coming in the UEFA Youth League (per Transfermarkt). Now that Barry has made the move back to Birmingham, this time as a Villa player, a lot of fans have been welcoming the teenager to their club.
Good bit of business by Villa.

This latest signing for Villa hasn’t just given the club a young prospect, it has given the Villa fans to make fun of their Birmingham rivals for taking one of their youth players.
