Description

Ian Carlo Poveda-Ocampo (born 9 February 2000) is a professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for EFL Championship club Sunderland and the Colombia national team.

He is a product of the Manchester City, Barcelona and Brentford academies and has been capped by England at youth level. He is also eligible to represent Colombia at international level.

Club career
Poveda started his career in the academy at Chelsea, where he was part of the same age group as Rhian Brewster and Reece James, before being poached by Arsenal and then Barcelona. Poveda was reported to have had a brief stint with Malaga-based side Puerto Malagueno between his stints at Arsenal and Barcelona, but didn't play for, or even officially register, with them.

Brentford
Poveda joined the academy at Brentford during the 2014 off-season, having left Barcelona due to the club being prosecuted for signing minors illegally. He was a member of the U15 squad which finished as runners-up in the Junior Vase at the 2015 Milk Cup and progressed to make 15 appearances and score three goals for the youth team during the 2015–16 season, which also included three appearances for the Development Squad. Poveda departed Brentford in July 2016, due to the closure of the club's academy.
