According to Spanish outlet Diario Sport, Barcelona’s scouting chief Joao Amaral recently met representatives of Club Brugge in Switzerland to explore the possibility of signing the talented winger.

Bisiwu, who currently features for Club Brugge’s reserve and U19 teams, has gained attention for his impressive performances at youth level. The winger enjoyed a standout 2025/26 UEFA Youth League campaign, making eight appearances, scoring three goals, and providing one assist.

The young forward also played a key role in Club Brugge U19’s run to the final of the UEFA Youth League, where they eventually lost to Real Madrid U19. Despite the defeat, Bisiwu’s performances throughout the competition significantly raised his profile across Europe.

Bisiwu began his football journey with Oud-Heverlee Leuven, where he spent six years developing his skills between 2014 and 2020 before joining Club Brugge’s academy system.

With his current contract at Club Brugge set to expire next year and renewal talks reportedly stalled, Barcelona are believed to see an opportunity to move quickly for one of Belgium’s most promising young talents.

If negotiations progress successfully, the move could mark a major step in Bisiwu’s young career as he seeks to establish himself at one of Europe’s biggest football clubs.
