Full name - Bojan Krkić Pérez Date of birth - August 28, 1990 (1990-08-28) (age 17) Place of birth - Linyola, Lleida, Spain Height - 1.70 m (5 ft 7 in) Playing position - Striker ![]() Bojan joined the Barcelona FC's cantera in 1999, and scored 889 goals in seven years. 2006 - Barcelona B - Games 15 - Goals 31 On September 16, 2007, Bojan made his official debut for FC Barcelona against CA Osasuna, coming on at the 78th minute for Giovani dos Santos. Three days later, he made his UEFA Champions League debut against Olympique Lyonnais, coming on at the 88th minute for Lionel Messi. He was, at the time, the youngest Barcelona player ever to feature in a Champions League game, at 17 years and 22 days. He made his second Champions League appearance on October 2, coming on at the 81st minute for Ronaldinho against VfB Stuttgart. On October 20, 2007, Bojan made his first league start for Barcelona away to Villarreal and scored in the 25th minute. It was his first goal for the club's first team and it made him the youngest ever goalscorer for Barcelona in a league match. Bojan scored his first ever Champions League goal on April 1, 2008 against Schalke 04, netting the only goal in the first (away) leg of the quarterfinals, making him the first person born in the 1990s to score in the Champions League and the second youngest player ever, behind Ghanaian forward Peter Ofori-Quaye, then playing for Olympiakos CFP, who scored at the age of 17 years and 195 days. Bojan finished the season with a record of 10 goals, breaking Raúl's record of most goals scored in a debut season. On February 1, 2008, Bojan was included in Luis Aragonés's squad for the friendly against France on February 6, 2008. Should he have featured in the match, Bojan would have made history by becoming the youngest player ever to represent Spain at 17 years, 5 months and 9 days, eclipsing Ángel Zubieta's record of 17 years and 9 months which has stood for over 70 years. However, Bojan called in sick and couldn't make his debut. On May 17, 2008 it was revealed that Bojan had been left out of Spain's 23-man squad for Euro 2008, after having talked to Luis Aragonés asking if he could be left out of the team on personal grounds, and also citing fatigue. |
