16-Year-Old Toni Fernández Makes Barcelona Debut in Copa del Rey Victory

Share This
Antonio "Toni" Fernández Casino, a 16-year-old forward, made his debut for FC Barcelona's senior team on January 4, 2025, during a Copa del Rey match against Barbastro.



 He was substituted onto the field in the latter stages of the game, contributing to the team's 4-0 victory. 


The match saw goals from Eric García, Robert Lewandowski (who scored twice), and Pablo Torre. Fernández's introduction marks a significant milestone in his burgeoning career, following his earlier achievements with Barcelona Atlètic, where he became the youngest scorer in the team's history. 

Born on July 15, 2008, in Rubí, Spain, Fernández joined Barcelona's youth academy in 2018. His versatility allows him to play as a striker, attacking midfielder, or winger. His progression through the ranks has been closely monitored, and his recent debut reflects the club's confidence in his potential to contribute at the highest level.

Fernández's cousin, Guille Fernández, is also a promising talent within Barcelona's ranks. The duo made history by both scoring in the same match for Barcelona Atlètic, with Guille becoming the third-youngest scorer for the team. 

Their impressive performances have caught the attention of Barcelona's coaching staff, including first-team coach Hansi Flick, who included them in the preseason tour in the United States. Both players have contracts with the club until 2027, and the club is closely monitoring their development with the expectation that they may eventually join the first team.
