Alberto Encinas has left Barcelona for Bayer Leverkusen.

The former Barca Juvenil A assistant coach has been confirmed as a new member of Bayer coach Gerardo Seoane's backroom staff.

Encinas spent last season as Juvenil A coach Sergi Mila's assistant.

Bayer chief Simon Rolfes said: "Alberto Encinas had been on our radar for a long time. He worked with great success in the youth team of FC Barcelona. It was his responsibility to develop young players and prepare them for more important tasks at Barça. We expect a lot from him, especially when we work with our young professionals."
