Bojan Krkic Bojan Krkic Pérez (born August 28, 1990 in Linyola, Spain), is a Serbian-Spanish footballer who plays for FC Barcelona.

His father, also named Bojan, is a Serb, and also a footballer, who played for Red Star Belgrade in the 1980s. After moving to Spain his father married Maria Lluïsa Pérez, a Spanish nurse, and became a scout for Barcelona in 1997.

Played for FC Barcelona’s cantera from 1999 to 2005, scoring 961 goals in seven years, breaking all previous goal scoring records held at the club’s youth levels.[5] A quick striker, with quite notable dribbling skills, Bojan shot to prominence at the UEFA European Under 17 Championships in Luxembourg in May 2006 when he was joint top-scorer. He achieved this despite being a year younger than most of the other players in the tournament and only playing 45 minutes in four out of five of Spain Under-17s matches. He scored a hat-trick against Luxembourg before inspiring his side to a 3-0 victory over the eventual champions Russia, with all of the goals of the game being scored with him on the pitch as a second half sub. In the third match of the tournament, he scored a penalty after once again being introduced at half time. He started the semi-final against the Czech Republic but after his team mate Roberto García was sent off, Spain struggled and lost 2-0 in a shock result. In the third-place play-off Bojan was once again a second half sub and scored the opener on 53 minutes. When the match went to penalties, he scored and his side won 5-4 to finish third. In the 2007 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship, Bojan led Spain to victory scoring the only goal against England in the final. He also scored in the semi-final against Belgium.
