“Exciting attacking talent”

The 18-year-old signed from Barcelona's academy in the summer and was part of the Club’s preseason tour of the US, playing against Bayern Munich and impressing with touch and technical quality.

He scored in the 6-5 win over Arsenal in the EDS’s opening match of this season’s Premier League 2 and started in the Checkatrade Trophy defeat to Shrewsbury.

He also started the UEFA Youth League defeat to Lyon, and, on Saturday, he replaced Felix Nmecha in the 3-2 win over Derby County and set up Benjamin Garre’s 74th-minute winner.

Bernabe made his senior City debut away to Oxford United in the Carabao Cup during the 2018/19 season and will hope to earn more playing time for the first team during 2019/20.
