In the match of the 16th round of the championship of Spain, in which Barcelona defeated Mallorca, one of the most notable in the composition of the guests was Takefusa Cubo. The young Japanese tribune Kamp Nou was subjected to violent obstruction, and Take explained his vision of this.

“Many Barcelona fans negatively perceived my appearance on the field,” Kubo said in a post-match flash interview for Movistar LaLiga. - It was unpleasant, but I noticed that there were those who greeted me with applause.. It gave me strength and courage. I think that by the end of the match I was booed not as a boy who traded Barcelona for Real, but as a dangerous rival "

18-year-old Kubo, when he was 11 years old, received an invitation to the Barcelona Academy, and in the first season (2012/13) he scored 74 goals in 30 matches in a team of the corresponding age.

However, in 2015, Barcelona was punished for violating transfer rules when inviting underage footballers, and Kubo had to leave the Catalan club along with others.

Take returned to Japan, where he played for Tokyo FC (30 matches in all tournaments, 6 goals) and Yokohama Mariners (6, 1), and in 2019 he was acquired by Real Madrid and sent on loan to Mallorca (10, 1). The teenager has already won 7 matches for the national team of Japan.
