FC Barcelona Announces Closure of Barça Academies in Morocco

FC Barcelona has officially announced that its Barça Academies in Rabat and Casablanca will cease operations effective May 12. The Barça Academy in Rabat commenced its activities in July 2023, and just a year later, in August 2024, the Casablanca academy followed suit. Throughout their operational years, both academies adhered to a unique model that mirrored the methodology employed by FC Barcelona, emphasizing a creative and offensive style of play, while also instilling essential values such as respect, humility, effort, ambition, and teamwork. These principles have led to remarkable success and development for the young athletes involved.

In light of this announcement, FC Barcelona extends its heartfelt gratitude to all families who have placed their trust in the project over the years. The club also acknowledges the dedication of all coaches, local staff, and partners who have contributed to the success of the Barça Academies in Morocco. The impact these academies have made on the local football community will not be forgotten, as they have played a pivotal role in nurturing young talent and promoting the values of the sport.
