Valentine Boat He landed in England and tried on the shirt of his new club, the Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club of the Premier League. There, he was already introduced through social networks and officially joined this week after finishing his participation in the Pre-Olympic with the Argentine National Team.
“look who’s here“, posted the Brighton X account with a photo of Colo wearing his new jacket with a smile and his fingers in a V, a celebration he performs in reference to his initial.
“Valentine’s Day came late“, he added jokingly in another publication. With his arrival, the 19-year-old boy will be the second Argentine on the squad. He will have his compatriot as a partner Facundo Goodnight. The institution itself even asked the boy from Rosario Central to warn Colo about the most outstanding aspect of the club. “The best thing about Brighton is its people“, answered.
Beyond the possible adaptation time that Colo needs to begin taking his first steps in Europe, he will also have a great objective off the pitch: learn English. This is what Barco made clear in a video where he introduces himself to his fans, leaving Spanish aside and now daring to express his first words in the native language of his new country of residence.

This is how the former Boca was presented on the English club’s networks.
“Hello, my name is Valentín Barco, but they call me Colo. Thank you very much Brighton for trusting me, I am very eager to play for this team and in the Premier League, the best league in the world. I am learning English, it is very important for me to adapt to this country. See you soon at the stadium,” commented the boy from Boca, saying goodbye with a smile and both thumbs raised, after a more ‘tense’ moment that seemed scripted.
Colo’s debut still has no confirmed date. He must carry out his first training sessions with the rest of the team and be evaluated by your coach. Likewise, he arrives at the Premier League in full rhythm, after being the undisputed starter for Javier Mascherano during the Pre-Olympic. Brighton -located 9th in the Premier- has two games to add next week: they will visit Sheffield on Sunday and the other Saturday will be the local Evertonteams that are currently in the relegation zone.
Colo became a reinforcement of the English club after executing the termination clause of 10 million dollars established in his last contract with Boca. This is how after qualifying for the Paris 2024 Games with the Argentine Under 23 team, he said goodbye to his teammates and took his flight to England.
At the airport before boarding, the 19-year-old player left a message to Boca fans through the media. “I am grateful to all the Boca fans, to the club, to the leaders, to everyone for these ten years that I lived. But very happy to take this step. Mouth is everything to me, they gave me everything from the beginning. I arrived at the club when I was 9 years old, a lifetime. “I am very grateful to all the fans and happy for taking this step,” declared the new Argentine player who will demonstrate his talent in the Premier League.
