Araujo started the game at right-back but asked to be subbed and was replaced by Bernal in the first half of the match in the Spanish capital.

I'm happy with Marcus, he plays well. The last few weeks he's had problems, he's been injured, so it's an opportunity for him. There are other options, Fermín, Gavi. I'm happy that Gavi is at a great level.

"He's already one of the best in the world at that age. He's a unique player, one we all enjoy watching every time he plays. I think Barcelona really notices it when Pedri isn't there."

Frenkie de Jong is now expected to make his return in the La Liga clash against Espanyol on April 11, rather than earlier fixtures initially anticipated.

Against Rayo Vallecano, Cubarsi registered an impressive 8 defensive contributions, including 5 clearances and 3 interceptions, while also winning an aerial duel without losing a single one.

Against Newcastle, and Sevilla earlier in the week, we saw Barcelona at their best. A team that can strike fear into any opponent in the world, because when they are on, they become truly unstoppable.

Barcelona smashed seven goals past Newcastle in the Champions League on Wednesday night to book their place in the quarter-finals of the competition. Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha were all on target as Hansi Flick's side once again demonstrated their attacking power.

Leo was signed. In January 2023, after winning the World Cup, we got in touch, and he told me he was excited about coming back, and I saw it. We talked until March, and I told him, 'Okay, when you give me the OK, I'll tell the president because I see it as a good move from a footballing perspective.'

After my departure, I decided not to make any statements out of respect for Barça. People know how much I love the club; my whole family are Barça fans. But I feel the need to explain myself. I've been carrying this inside and I need to clarify things.
