CIES Football Observatory lists the 200 U20 players in 75 leagues around the world (20 in each of the ten positions considered) who have accumulated the most official game experience during last year.
The highest score overall was recorded for Barcelonas prodigy Gavi, whose relative experience capital is 4.37 times higher than the average measured for players of the same age and position.
The CIES Football Observatory is a research group within the International Centre for Sports Studies (CIES), an independent study centre located in Neuchtel, Switzerland. The CIES Football Observatory specialises in the statistical analysis of football. It was created in 2005 by Dr. Raffaele Poli and Dr. Loc Ravenel.
The top players by position are Plamen Andreev (Levski Sofia, goalkeeper), Antnio Silva (Benfica, centre back), Alejandro Balde (Barcelona, left back), Rico Lewis (Manchester City, right back), Arthur Vermeeren (Royal Antwerp, defensive midfielder), Pablo Gavi (Barcelona, central midfielder), Bilal El Khannouss (KRC Genk, attacking midfielder), Matheus Martins (Watford, left winger), ngelo Gabriel (Santos, right winger) and Marcos Leonardo (Santos, centre-forward)
The ranking was established according to the experience capital method, taking into account the minutes played in official games during the last 365 days, the sporting level of the matches and the results. Furthermore, the experience capital was related to the average measured for players of the same age and position, which allows us to present a relative score as mentioned above
New leaks show further images of Barcelonas home kit for 2023/24 season
With the current campaign coming to an end in a few weeks time, attention will soon turn to next season. As is tradition in modern times, clubs will begin to reveal their new kits towards the end of the previous season.
Barcelona are likely to follow that trend, and their kit for next season has already been leaked by Footy Headlines, as per MD. Club officials have opted for a more classic look, with there being less Blaugrana stripes.
On top of that, the typography will be white, which is reminiscent of the kits worn by the Barcelona sides of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s.
As usual, it is expected that the new kit will be a big seller, but next season could see a massive increase in shirt sales, should Lionel Messi make a triumphant return to Barcelona in the summer. At the moment, that appears to be a genuine possibility
