Club career
Born in Riudarenes, Girona, Catalonia, Deulofeu joined FC Barcelona's youth academy in 2003, aged just nine. On 2 March 2011, still registered with the junior team, he made his senior debut, appearing for the B team in a 4–1 away win against Córdoba CF in the second division, coming on as a substitute for Eduard Oriol in the 75th minute.[1]
In late April 2011, Deulofeu was called-up to the senior squad for the first time, for a La Liga match against Real Sociedad on the 29th,[2] but eventually did not leave the bench in a 1–2 away loss. On 3 August, he made his Barcelona first-team debut, in a 1–4 friendly loss against C.D. Guadalajara; three days later, against Club América, he assisted Seydou Keita in the 90th minute of a 2–0 win.
On 16 September, Deulofeu scored his first goal as a senior, in a 1–2 loss at Hércules CF.[3] On 29 October, he made his first official appearance with the main squad, replacing David Villa in the 63rd minute of a 5–0 league home success against RCD Mallorca.[4]
