Alan Godoy's Future Hangs in the Balance: Will Barcelona B Keep Their Rising Star?
The Godoy Conundrum: Too Good for Third Division?
Let me break it down Chicago-style: when a 15,000-euro signing starts getting Segunda División offers after one season, you know someone’s been cooking with hot sauce. Alan Godoy—the 22-year-old forward who joined Barcelona B from ElDense last summer—has become the human embodiment of that viral ‘look at him now’ meme.
By the Numbers:
- Signed for a laughable €15k (that’s less than Messi’s monthly electricity bill)
- Outperformed his xG (expected goals) by 18% in Liga Fase Regular
- Currently fielding offers from 3 Segunda clubs (sources say one includes a starter guarantee)
Barcelona’s Chess Move
The Blaugrana brass face a classic developmental dilemma: cash in now or bet on his potential? His contract runs until 2027, meaning any transfer would actually bring in revenue—a rarity for Barça’s B-team operations. But here’s the kicker: sporting director Deco reportedly sees him as potential first-team depth within two years.
“When a player outgrows his league faster than a teenager outgrows sneakers, you’ve either got a gem or a marketing opportunity.” - My scouting notebook
The Human Factor
Currently vacationing in Gran Canaria (smart man), Godoy faces three paths:
- Stay: Fight for promotion under new coach García Pimienta with guaranteed minutes
- Loan: Get Segunda experience while Barça retains rights (most likely outcome)
- Sell: Cash in with buy-back clause—the Dest/Todibo special
Pro Tip: Watch how this plays out. If Barça accepts a straight sale without clauses, it tells you everything about their faith in La Masía’s current pipeline.

¡Por sólo 15k euros!
Alan Godoy es el fichaje más rentable desde que Messi pagaba la luz en La Masía 😂.
Dilema culé:
- Venderlo ahora y comprar 3 meses de electricidad para el Camp Nou
- Esperar y arriesgarse a que valga como un año de sueldo de Gavi
Mi apuesta: Lo prestan con cláusula… ¡como todo buen drama de telenovela argentina! ¿Ustedes qué harían? #GodoyALasGrandes
The €15k Bargain That’s Now Priceless
Alan Godoy is the human equivalent of finding a Rolex at a garage sale—signed for €15k (less than Messi’s WiFi bill) and now fielding Segunda offers like he’s the last slice of pizza at a team meeting.
Barca’s Problem: Do they cash in now or wait and risk him outgrowing their B-team faster than a toddler outgrows shoes?
Pro tip: If they sell without a buy-back clause, we’ll know Deco’s scouting notes were written in invisible ink.

The €15k Wonder Kid’s Crossroads
Alan Godoy’s career path is more unpredictable than British weather—stay with Barça B (aka ‘Third Division FC’), loan to Segunda (where adults play), or sell with a buy-back (Barça’s favorite ‘Oops, we messed up’ clause).
By the Numbers:
- Cost less than a Messi shoelace
- Outscored his xG like a kid cheating in math class
Pro Tip: If Barça sells him outright, their faith in La Masía is as solid as a wet paper contract. Place your bets, folks!
¿Qué hará Godoy?
Este pibe de 22 años llegó al Barça B por menos de lo que Messi gasta en luz en un mes (¡15k euros!) y ya tiene ofertas de Segunda.
El dilema: ¿Se queda para luchar por el ascenso, sale cedido o lo venden con cláusula de recompra?
Si el Barça lo vende sin condiciones, sabremos que la fe en La Masía está por los suelos. ¡A ver cómo termina este tango futbolístico!
¿Vos qué harías en su lugar? 😏
