Barcelona youngster Kaptoum to join Real Betis LaLiga - Barcelona He has ended contract with Catalans

Barcelona youth forward Wilfrid Kaptoum is on the verge of signing for Real Betis after agreeing to end his contract with the Catalan club.

The Cameroon has an agreement with Betis and is expected to join their youth squad initially before taking the step up to the first team.

Kaptoum made his first team debut for Barcelona in the cup against Villanovense, two seasons ago, and then again in the same competition scored a goal against Valencia at the Mestalla.

It appeared as though he was going to become a regular in the first team squad but a knee injury halted his progress and following an injury he was sidelined for five months.

He has been back fit since December but Barcelona did not offer him a new contract which ended this summer.
