Thank you for your recommendation!

But is it almost impossible to get an admission if I took only a few math courses? (i only took 5 math-econ related courese and I didn't took any advacned math courses)

Is Barcelona GSE selective ??

I took almost 30 econ courses, so I think my economics background is rather solid tan mathmatics!

If you're eventually thinking of applying to PhD programs, I would strongly recommend that you take an additional year to take more math courses at your current school. Would this be possible at all?
