The gathering was attended by Joan Laporta, president of FC Barcelona, Rafa Yuste, first vice-president, Joan Soler, the director in charge of young football, and Anderson Luis de Souza, "Deco," the sports director.
It has been nothing short of extraordinary how Cubarsí broke through into Barcelona's first squad despite having the likes of Christensen and others.

He became the youngest defender to play for La Roja in history, having only been there for 17 years and 2 months.
