Competition is intense both in professional football and at the grassroots level, and Real Madrid and Barcelona often find themselves vying for the same young talents. In the latest battle for a promising prospect, Real Madrid has come out on top, securing the highly sought-after Alexei Mayorau, a young player born in 2012 who spent last season with Cerdanyola. Though still very much a future project, those who have seen him play are convinced of his immense potential.

The football world is moving at an ever-increasing pace, with big clubs leaving no stone unturned in their quest to secure the next generation of stars. The race to sign young talent has sports management teams constantly on the lookout for emerging players who might one day become key figures on the field.

In recent months, both Real Madrid and Barcelona have been pursuing Alexei Mayorau, a 12-year-old Belarusian boy who has made waves in Catalan football. Despite his young age, he has impressed with his playing ability and natural goal-scoring talent, having netted 59 goals in 22 matches last season as an attacking midfielder for Cerdanyola's 7-a-side team.

In this instance, there were no barriers related to age or nationality, as Mayorau resides in Spain, making the transfer straightforward. Real Madrid, however, took every precaution, requesting all necessary documentation to avoid any issues, as Marca reported months ago. The club meticulously handles every detail before signing a minor, and this case was no exception.
